    Deepen your meditation practice. Few things affect our lives more than our faculty of attention. If we can’t focus our attention – due to either agitation or dullness – we can’t do anything well. We can’t study, listen, converse with others, work, play or even sleep well when our attention is impaired. Clearly, if we were to enhance our faculty of attention, our lives would improve dramatically.
