Your Pre-Flight Checklist:

1. For the next two weeks, wake up 30 minutes to an hour early every day and set aside the extra time for meditation.
2. If you aren\\u2019t familiar with meditating, sit still and pay attention to your breath. See how long you can stay focused, and practice doing it for longer.
3. To obtain clarity on something specific, meditate on that particular topic. You may be surprised by how much clearer the subject becomes after meditation.
