![]() I love markets that’s my thing, but the way I’ve made my business is totally different from most other investment management firms. I’ve made a whole bunch of decisions and they have generally speaking worked out for me. And your life essentially depends on the cumulative quality of the decisions you make. “I think that every single day there are many decisions that people make, and they all have consequences. Meditation helps him make those decisions. The ability to think clearly, put things in their right place and have perspective: That’s what I mean by ‘centered.’”ĭalio's success in the financial markets comes from making multiple good decisions over time. Being “centered” is that state in which your emotions are not hijacking you. “It means when things come at you – challenges, stresses, disruptive events – you can be calm and analytical and approach them almost, I imagine, like a Ninja sees things coming at him in slow motion so that he’s obviously in control.

Rosenthal describes the “Super Mind” as “an experience of not only heightened aptitude and problem-solving ability, but also a state of emotional sensitivity, empathy, perspective and diplomatic skills.” That fourth state is “Transcendence.” Beyond this stage, though, lie even more states of consciousness, which Rosenthal refers to collectively as the “Super Mind.” However, through Transcendental Meditation there’s a “fourth state of consciousness” that “lies deep within the mind of every human being,” Rosenthal writes. Our every day lives tend to be lived in three states of consciousness - wakefulness, sleep, and dreaming.
