Summary of Holly B. Rogers's The Mindful Twenty-Something

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

#1 You can’t wait to start enjoying your life. The fact is, the circumstances of your life don’t determine your happiness. It is the way you think about and relate to the events of your life that determines whether you live with great satisfaction or intense suffering.

#2 Mindfulness allows you to change your approach to your difficulties, even if they are serious. It allows you to see them for what they are, not what you think they should be, and helps you deal with them.

#3 Mindfulness is the act of paying attention to your present-moment experience with an attitude of compassionate curiosity. It helps you develop the internal conditions that lead to enduring happiness, so you are not so vulnerable to the constantly changing external conditions of your life experience.

#4 There is a lot of scientific evidence that learning to focus your attention without judgment on the present has a positive impact on many aspects of your life. It improves your ability to focus efficiently on your work, and it helps you manage your emotions in difficult situations.
