"Without the ability to concentrate, a full and complete life is not possible. If you lack the mental focus to stay with one activity for any length of time, you will never be able to achieve your goals, build your dreams or enjoy life's dazzling process. Meditation is not some contrarian practice reserved for monks sitting atop mountains. No, meditation is an age-old technique that was developed by some of the world's wisest people to gain full control of the mind and, in doing so, to manifest its enormous potential for worthy pursuits. Meditation is a method to train your mind to function the way it was designed to function. And here's the key benefit: the peace and tranquility you will feel after twenty minutes of daily meditation will infuse every remaining minute of your day. You cannot afford not to discover the power of this 5,000-year-old mind-training discipline." (Robin Sharma - Daily Inspiration, February 28)
