Why I Stopped Chasing Perfect Meditation
For years, I thought a good meditation meant a quiet mind, a perfectly straight posture, and leaving the cushion feeling peaceful.
Some days all three happened. Most days they didnโt.
My meditation practice began decades ago. I learned to meditate through reading books such as Thich Nhat Hanhโs โThe Miracle of Mindfulness.โ This wasnโt the worst way to begin; however, I was missing something important.
Learning to sit.The early days of my practice relied heavily on guided meditation to help me keep focus, but the desire arose to sit quietly. This is where I felt the most frustration, as I, like so many others, think our minds need to shut down completely.
That is not the nature of mind.
I learned that sitting quietly for ten minutes, allowing my attention to move from thought to breath, and back to thought again, was where the real practice lived.
The moment I stopped judging a wandering mind as bad meditation was when I stopped chasing perfect meditation.
What if a successful meditation is simply the one you showed up for?
What if the distracted days teach us more than the peaceful ones?
What if meditation isnโt about becoming perfect but about becoming present?
If youโre new to meditation, you might enjoy beginning with my Awareness Meditation, where we practice noticing breath and body without judgement.

๐ฟ In a world rushing to be loud and fast, I choose quiet strength and steady progress.
Success isnโt just about big moves โ itโs about the small, consistent steps we take every day.
Keep your focus sharp, your intentions clear, and your actions deliberate.
Remember: True power lies in patience and persistence.

Fortune favours the boldโand perhaps, happiness does too.
We often think of happiness as something that just happensโa fleeting feeling when the right mix of circumstances magically aligns. But what if happiness wasnโt just a matter of chance? What if there were bold steps you could take to actively invite more joy into your life?
In the latest episode of The Coffee Journeys Show, we explore the fascinating concept of the four types of happiness (or chance) as outlined by neuroscientist Dr. James H. Austin in his book ๐๐ฉ๐ข๐ด๐ฆ, ๐๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ๐ค๐ฆ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ท๐ช๐ต๐บ: ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ถ๐ค๐ฌ๐บ ๐๐ณ๐ต ๐ฐ๐ง ๐๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ๐ญ๐ต๐บ.
Dr. Austinโs framework suggests that while some happiness comes purely from luck, much of it is shaped by our own actions, preparation, and individuality.
Curious? Tune in for a full breakdown of the four types of happiness and actionable tips to help you take charge of your joy and create a life filled with purpose and contentment.

๐ก How can we shift our focus from possessions to experiences?
โข ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐: Instead of buying another gadget, consider planning a weekend getaway, taking a cooking class, or attending a concert.
โข ๐๐ถ๐ณ๐ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐: Give loved ones gifts that create shared memories, such as tickets to a show or a day trip to a nearby town.
โข ๐๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐บ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐: Put down your phone and truly engage in the experiences youโre having. Savour the beauty of your surroundings, connect with the people around you, and allow yourself to be fully present.
By choosing experiences over possessions, we invest in something far more valuable โ our own happiness and the richness of our lives.

Engage in intellectual sparring to improve your teamโs strategic thinking! ๐ค๐ก
While in Toastmasters club, I came across a captivating form of debate known as the Oxford Debate.
Imagine this: youโre given a topic in advance, for instance: โOur current architecture model is good for the future.โ
Two teams are formed one supporting the statement and the other opposing it.
But hereโs the twist: ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ถ๐ด๐ป๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ!
This setup presents interesting challenges and incredible opportunities. The objective? Help your team โwin.โ
Itโs easier if you agree with the topic, but what if you disagree?Thatโs when the real magic happens. Youโll need to find compelling arguments against the statement, all while aiming for victory.

This is so true on many levels today. From politics, throughout the leadership, even to...parenting!
Blaming big tech companies for devices that turn kids to zombies.
Blaming kids they are glued to their iPhones.
Itโs easy to point fingers, but the real challenge lies in fostering genuine connections and teaching balance.
We need to create environments where technology enhances rather than detracts from our lives. Letโs prioritize open communication, mindfulness, and shared experiences over screens.
Change starts with us, so letโs lead by example and guide the next generation toward a more intentional and engaged life.
-
This is one of those truisms that you have to confront on a very practical level when you are a parent.
It also overlaps heavily with the realm of leadership.
And, when you try to balance being a leader and a parent, you truly push the boundaries of what is possible. ๐

"Do what you love, and you'll never feel like you're working."
I'm not entirely convinced that's accurate.However, I do believe that when you are passionate about something, it becomes significantly easier to dedicate time to learning, refining your skills, and ultimately achieving remarkable results.

Interesting perspective on the imposter syndrome, and a bit of a spotlight effect.
Itโs fascinating how we often feel like weโre under constant scrutiny, when in reality, most people are too busy with their own lives to notice our every move.

โA calendar speaks more truth than a to-do list.
Your to-do list is the ideal Sunday evening theory.
Your calendar is the brutal Monday to Friday practice.
Operate accordingly: you must block time in your calendar for deep work.โ
~Shreyas Doshi
I've been a big fan of all sorts of ToDo (and NotToDo) lists. I've created and iterated on several systems to keep track of stuff and Get Things Done.
Some time ago, however, I integrated my favourite app with a calendar, and I am now more realistic about what I can do during a day, week, month etc.
Let's keep it in mind. Time is not made of rubber :)
What is your way of staying realistic about what you plan to do?
PS. On that topic - check out this audio notebook:

I love DEAL framework from Tim Ferriss.
๐ Definition (smart)
๐ Elimination (hard)
๐ Automation (hard)
๐ Liberation (smart)
But we still need to work hard to get the right results. This, however, need to be laser-focus work on the target tasks that will take us to the results fast.

๐ Are you asking the right questions? ๐ค
Children are experts at throwing questions around, and sometimes it can be frustrating to answer them repeatedly.
But there's a method to this madness. ๐Instead of complaining or avoiding the questions, let's learn from our kids. We should listen more, improve our patience, and develop better responses. Asking the right questions is an art, especially in our interactions with others. ๐ก
Being curious and asking questions is essential for personal growth and cognitive development. We should never dismiss someone based on the quantity or quality of their questions. This applies to children and adults alike. ๐ค
Leadership requires the skill of asking the right questions. Mentors and coaches excel in this area, and great leaders make it a part of their everyday routine. ๐ฅ
So, are you asking the right questions?
Let's embrace curiosity and strive for intentional living and leadership.

Efficient versus effective ๐ค
I thought it's mostly for corpo, but it's true everywhere: start-up, scale-up, for-profit, none-profit, or, even hobbies.We just like to be busy..
Here are two truisms to keep in mind:
1. Doing something unimportant well does not make it important.
2. Requiring a lot of time does not make a task important.More on this topic ๐

Do you know the difference between a good leader and a great leader?
Itโs the foundation they build upon.
That foundation is the strengths of their team members. ๐งต๐
Here are three reasons why great leaders invest in the strengths of their team:
1โฃ Strengths accelerate growth: People learn faster when they focus on areas where they naturally excel.
2โฃ Strengths fuel creativity: People are more innovative, collaborative, and insightful when they work within their strengths.
3โฃ Strengths build resilience: People recover more quickly from setbacks when they lean into their strengths and talents.

Such an important and underrated topic ๐

Have you heard this little self-criticism voice in your head today?
It is normal. We cannot avoid it. It helped our ancestors survive. Humans are wired this way, and we can't change it.
What we can change is how we react to it.
Setting realistic expectations is crucial for avoiding disappointment. We often tend to set unrealistic expectations for ourselves, leading to constant dissatisfaction and negative self-talk.
But what if we shifted our focus to setting realistic goals and celebrating small victories?
A growth mindset and openness to learning from failures are also essential. Instead of getting discouraged by setbacks, we should embrace them as opportunities to grow and improve.
So, let's start setting realistic expectations for ourselves and celebrating our progress.
Remember, progress is progress, no matter how small it may seem.
