<p>The pace of modern business life has adversely affected our ability to focus on our current task and  also increased stress levels that can be intolerable from time to time.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Puddicombe’s solution is very simple: DO NOTHING.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>He recommends setting aside 10 minutes each day to calm your mind.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Practise observing thoughts and anxieties without passing judgment, just simply experience them.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Focus on the present moment and nothing else. This should help your mind to recalibrate.</p>
