During this interview, we discuss how we can prime our emotional state, refine our inner awareness and create better attention skills that result in us having a greater capacity to monitor our mind and body in real time.

Key Takeaways

• "We have emotional deficit disorder around our own potential."
• Excellence is having the ability to create an exceptionally stable and clarified mind… we do this through contemplative practices.
• When we refine our emotional awareness, we come home to ourselves more readily.
• We must boldly re-envision our lives as something with meaning and purpose.
