The mind thinks involuntarily, just like the heart beats involuntarily.

Okay, so trying to give your brain a command to shut up is as impactful as trying to get your heart a command to stop beating.

It does not work, so let's stop using it as the marker for success.

I am Vision Laciani, founder of Mind Dali, the School for Human Transformation.

You're listening to the Mind Dali podcast where we'll be bringing you the greatest teachers and thought leaders on the planet.

It's got the world's most powerful ideas and personal growth for my, body, spirit and work.

So what I'm going to be talking about today is how you can use your meditation practice to help you not only change the world, right?

To not only leave this planet better than you found it, but even better, have a ball while you're doing it.

Doesn't that sound amazing? Like who doesn't want to leave this planet better than we found it and also have a hell of a good time on the way?

Because so far that I know it's a hundred percent death rate.

Now, you talk to people like Navin, you talk to people like Ray Dalio.

They might think that this is going to change in our lifetime, that maybe we'll outsmart it in our generation.

But so far, it's a hundred percent death rate. From the moment the sperm hits the egg, we are hurtling towards the grave.

So we might as well have a good time while we're hurtling towards the grave.

And what if we leave this planet better than we found it?

The sperm is here with me and she always told me to leave every room better than I found it.

That means you might want to tidy up, that means energetically, it's brighter when you leave it than when you came in.

And so let's do the same thing with the planet.

So as Jason said, I'm Emily Fletcher. I am the founder of Ziva Meditation, I'm the creator of Ziva Online and recently Ziva Kids.

I've taught over 50,000 people how to meditate on their own and also how to use these tools to get better at life.

Because as Vision said earlier, I believe that we don't meditate to get good at meditation.

We meditate to get good at life. So what exactly does that mean?
