Effect on Emotions

• Mindfulness has had a huge effect on how I deal with my emotions. I wish I could be more mindful.

• I don't believe in emotional control. I believe in emotional command, which means you just understand it.

• Viktor Frankl, who was in a concentration camp as a psychologist, said 'suffering stops being suffering when you understand it'.

Thoughts on Breathing

• Just focus on your breath. If you start to understand the fundamentals of meditation, then you can just focus on your breath.

• Just concentrating on the breathing in and out is the most basic form of meditation that brings you mindfulness.

Bullying Story

• I was blessed to get along with everyone—nerds, jocks, stoners—because I embraced diversity. That kept me from being bullied.
• Later in business, I faced harsh criticism, but I learned you can’t please everyone.
• Focus on those who support you, because people are people, and connection beats judgment.
