Summary

I have interviewed some great investors on this show and one thing comes to mind...

While all the greats are using a form of mindfulness, they never describe it that way. This interview with Jonathan Deyoe dives into the concept of how mindfulness can help you become a better investor.

We also discuss some wall street myths, meditation, and why simplicity in financial planning is better than complex...

And if that isn't enough we talk about how to create a happiness dividend.

0:18.0	Jonathan, how are you today?

0:47.7	world, which started 25 years ago, I was a student of comparative religion, specifically Tibetan
0:53.9	phenomenology and meditation practices. I was a med of comparative religion, specifically Tibetan phenomenology and meditation practices.
0:57.3	I was a meditator long before I was a financial planner, and I found that that has provided
1:03.0	a bridge between the stories of the day and sanity. We work primarily around education and

1:16.7	You mentioned you meditated for a while before this, and I want to keep this kind of in personal
1:22.6	finance realm. How does meditation help you when it comes to personal finance? Meditation is the practice of mindfulness and the definition of mindfulness, whether it's personal finance or the attempt to become enlightened.
1:36.5	The definition of mindfulness is kind of the same.
1:38.6	It's the non-judgmental awareness of the present moment as it's presented to us by our five senses and our minds,
