From How Busy People Meditate Every Day written by Drew Long:
Arnold Schwarzenegger describes how he began meditating during a time in his life when everything was going right. He was preparing for a bodybuilding competition, buying real estate, filming a movie, filming a documentary, and
“everything was clustered into one big problem, rather than separating it out into having calm, peace and being happy.”
Arnold says he started meditating and “I saw the effect right away.” He continued to do [transcendental] meditation for about a year:
Even today, I still benefit from that, I don’t merge and bring things together, I don’t see it as one big problem, I take on one challenge at a time. I do one thing at a time.
– Arnold Schwarzenegger
