Meditating On Your Career Development - Daniel Kharlas

When I first started my career, I found myself devastated when I didn't know the answer to an interview question. I would stall, get frustrated, and attempt to make something up to answer the question. Over time, I realised that this behaviour was damaging and was losing me job offers that I could have gotten if I'd simply admitted that I didn't know the answer to the question. It takes deep thought and self discovery to realize a flaw in yourself. I remember asking myself why I wanted to know all the answers so badly. It dawned on me that this behaviour was a result of being in school for so long. School teaches you that not having an answer gives you zero marks. In real life, having a fake answer is even worse. The thing that really made me realize this was meditation. Clearing my mind and focusing on that question helped me see my own flaw. Daniel Kharlas is an expert in meditation and in this episode, he explores how meditation can help in career development.
