These 7 lessons may be summed up in one sentence, emphasizing three words: Right-minded teammates always accept, forgive, and adjust their thinking and work behavior.
- I am not upset about this difficult situation for the reasonReason is a mythological character and symbolic guide who shows you how to think and behave in a Right-Minded way. As your Right-Minded teacher, Reason helps you differentiate and choose between Right-Minded and wrong-minded attitudes and behaviors. More I think. [This is TRUE. The book will explain.]
- I accept and own my part in this situation.

2 Options for Applying the 7 Lessons
There is no single right way to apply these 7 Mindfulness Lessons. But there are two possible scenarios that lend themselves well to team application: self-study and team study. Both are recommended.
Self-Study Approach
If you are pursuing self-study, you will learn how to use the 7 Lessons by considering a difficult team situation you likely know very well: that of the Constantly Complaining Teammate (CCT). Facing a Constantly Complaining Teammate on your team may be the reason you are seeking teamwork solutions.
Though a CCT’s complaints may look or sound different day to day, a similar message underpins their efforts. They insist, “My life can’t get better until you change.” They believe they are right, and everyone else is wrong, so therefore you must be the one to change.
Fortunately, the 7 Mindfulness Lessons can successfully address CCT challenges. Once you understand how to apply these 7 Lessons with a CCT, you will know how to do the same in all your difficult situations.
Team Study Approach
If you are opting for a team approach, in addition to this book, you will also want to consult the RMT book Right-Minded Teamwork in Any Team: The Ultimate Team-Building Method to Create a Team That Works as One. Here, you will discover a three-workshop implementation plan, the third of which focuses on Right-Minded Teammate development. This third team-building workshop is a wonderful time to explore the 7 Mindfulness Lessons and collectively decide how to apply them in your team.
If you are taking the team study approach, be sure to distribute the 7 Lessons cards and posters to all teammates ahead of time. (These reusable resources are included in your package purchase here ONLY at rightmindedteamwork.com).
Regardless of which implementation approach you choose, the 7 Mindfulness Lessons will help you achieve a positive team mindset by guiding teammates to raise their awareness of their thoughts, choices, and behaviors. When teammates follow these Lessons, they Do No Harm while working together as one.
A Real-World Testimonial for the 7 Mindfulness Lessons
For over thirty-five years, I used tools like the 7 Mindfulness Lessons with hundreds of teams, and every time, they proved themselves effective. While working on this book series, I received a note from an RMT student who had actively applied the 7 Lessons to transform a challenging situation. She shared:
“Recently, I was reflecting on a challenging interpersonal situation, and the first of the 7 Mindfulness Lessons popped into my mind. ‘I am not upset about this difficult team situation for the reason I think,’ I told myself. Immediately, I saw there was much more to the situation than the surface-level issue. I figured I might as well apply the next few Lessons, too, and as I did, I felt myself relaxing. In just a few moments, I was able to see the situation completely differently.
“My inner resistance dissipated, and now the issue has, too. I had no doubt your methodology was effective, but I didn’t realize how immediately transformative it could be. Thank you and RMT for this breakthrough!”
No matter what teamwork challenges you’re facing, Right-Minded Teamwork truly has the power to turn your team around.
