How Can we Stay More in the Moment?

​Pratik, Thank you for your One Question:
How can we stay more in the moment to be aware of our thoughts, feelings, etc which can allow us to operate from a higher gear?

Before we can play any sport well, 3 things are required to be brought together:
1) Learning the right technique of playing the sport from a coach
2) Practising the right technique on the training ground
3) Playing on the playground which tells us how much we have progressed in learning the technique as measured by the ease and grace of our play and number of wins

Consciousness is defined as Awareness of our thoughts in our mental body, feelings in our emotional body, sensations in our physical body, quality of energy in our energy body and love or fear in our spiritual body.

When I put my hand in the fire, if I have no sensation of my hand burning, I will not pull away my hand and my hand will keep burning. It's only because I have awareness of the sensation of burning that I respond by pulling away my hand from the fire.

If we have awareness of our thoughts, feelings, sensations, energy level and being (love or fear), we will never think thoughts, speak words and take actions that harm us or harm other people. When we harm other people, we are harming our own self because it's in giving that we receive. If we have awareness of our thoughts, feelings, sensations, energy level and being (love or fear), we would think thoughts, speak words and take actions that massively contribute to our own self and massively contribute to all beings in our space.

Therefore, Leadership Development is about raising our Human Consciousness. A great leader has a much higher Consciousness than a good leader. A good leader has a much higher consciousness than a bad leader. That is why Bapu Gandhi was a great leader and Hitler was a bad leader.

The RYD Growth Lever - Leadership Depth - is about raising our consciousness from the darkness of unconsciousness in Gear 0 to our Inner Light of full consciousness in Gear 5. RYD Transformative Practises, also known as RYD Growth Habits in each Gear support us to raise our consciousness one Gear at a time from Gear 0 all the way to Gear 5.

Greater our consciousness, greater our awareness of our thoughts, feelings, sensations, energy and being (love or fear).

Like in sports, it is not enough to learn the technique of the RYD Growth Habit. It is not even enough to learn the technique and daily practise the RYD Growth Habit. All 3 things are required to be done for raising our consciousness to be aware, moment to moment, of our sensations, energy, feelings, thoughts, being (fear or love) to be a great leader creating massive positive impact and have it all:
1) Learning the right technique 
2) Practising the right technique on the training ground during daily Morning and Evening Holy Hour
3) Playing on the playground which tells us how much we have progressed in learning the technique as measured by the ease and grace of our play and number of wins - Which means bringing the RYD Growth habits into our everyday life, at work and at home. It's not enough to do gratitudes and acknowledgements morning and evening. Are we playing to be in appreciative acknowledgment of our own self and be grateful for all that we have, moment to moment, as we are playing the game of life? It's not enough to meditate in the morning and evening. Are we practising observing our breath and sensations through the day? It's not enough to do 1 hour of physical fitness daily. Are we standing and sitting with the right posture, moment to moment? Are we sleeping adequate number of hours to be fully rested?

Trust this long answer to your short question served you in some way, Pratik 💜

Keep learning, practising and playing to joyously lead yourself and your business from good to great, realize your dreams and have it all with ease and grace; experiencing beauty, balance and harmony within and all around; while having lots of fun and adventure along the way.

Loving you,
