Do world-class performers share some similar characteristics?! The research done by Drs. Harald Harung and Frederick Travis at Maharishi University of Management shows that they do. To be more successful, like Harung explains in an interview with New Mavericks, you must change how the brain works and you can do that through exercise, listening to music and meditation, preferably Transcendental Meditation.

From Science Daily:

Fred Travis emphasizes that everything we do changes our brain. Transcendental meditation and making music are activities people should devote themselves to if they wish to change their mind in the right direction. But you can make good progress by following common health recommendations: get enough sleep, work out physically, eat healthily, and don't do drugs. How you think also plays a role.
