As I approach ten years of doing my best to live mindfully, I thought it might be useful for people thinking of dipping a toe in the 'mindfulness' water to hear a perspective from someone who's been doing it for a while. I'm no paragon of mindfulness - but I have at least plugged away for long enough to have had sufficient successes to know that it's worth persisting. Why I began At the time (about 10 years ago), I'd managed to get an assignment remotely working exclusively with a remote team. It was a great job, and a wonderful team to work with. However, this meant I got zero personal contact other than a very occasional trip to visit them. After a while I began to realise that this wasn't doing anything good for my state of mind: I found myself getting more and more stressed, for no obvious reason. I guess that, during the last couple of years of the Covid Pandemic, self-isolation and working at home, problems like this have become rather normal - so perh
Just trying out some maths - to see if it will work!
When \(a \ne 0\), there are two solutions to \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\) and
\begin{equation} x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a} \end{equation}
interesting integral:
\begin{equation}\int_0^\infty \frac{x^3}{e^x-1} dx = \frac{\pi^4}{15}\end{equation}
