We’ve all evolved with default modes prioritizing survival and efficiency, often at the expense of fulfillment and sustainable impact. Through the following shifts in our mindset, we can develop a reliable and effortless approach to seeing clearly and aligning our actions with our intentions: 

1. Bring awareness when we find ourselves automatically reacting. 
2. Seek to understand with compassion when we’re feeling judgy. 
3. Seek new information with curiosity when stuck in our echo chambers. 
4. Tap into mindful energy to take actions aligned with our goals, even when it’s uncomfortable to change old ways of thinking and acting. 
5. Choose appreciative joy over negativity. 
6. Let go of attachments to achieve inner calm. 
7. Focus on what is important when we feel distracted and overwhelmed. 
8. Respond in a balanced way with equanimity instead of biased impulsivity.
