Sit Still and Prosper

A former money manager discovers how investing can be about much more than just making money.

Stephanie Griffiths was a successful money manager and self-described workaholic when she learned to meditate, hoping to reduce her stress and improve her productivity. But when she suddenly lost her job, meditation became a path to a fresh perspective on investing and on life. By cultivating what Buddhists call “beginner’s mind,” Griffiths opened her eyes to a much richer range of possibilities, both personal and financial.
