Attention Training

Attention training is the basis of all abilities.  You train your attention so that you can relax and yet be alert at the same time: relaxed so that your mind is calm and clear and alert so that you are alert to that attention.  

Self-Knowledge and Self-Mastery

Using your trained attention you can observe your thought stream and your emotions with high clarity and from a third-party objectivity.  With this you will not be attached to your own feelings, you will develop a sense of equanimity and with that you will develop self-mastery and self-knowledge

Creating Useful Mindful Mental Habits

One very useful mindful mental habit is to be happy.  Many people think that happiness is a pursuit, but we know that it is the clear and calm mind that gives you happiness.  All the worldly material comforts will not give us sustained happiness because of impermanence and un-satisfaction. 

A even more useful mindful mental habit is to feel happy for others to be happy.  We call this Appreciative Joy, which is the opposite of jealousy.  Imagine whenever you meet anybody, your habitual, instinctive first thought is I wish for this person to be happy.  Having such habits change everything at work, for your joy will be picked up by others.  You'll create a type of trust that leads to a highly happy work environment, filled with joy and harmony.
