AbstractIdea: Awesome Monitoring for Your Most Mission-Critical Component

For every system you build it is critical to have effective monitoring. Yet most of us have almost no monitoring for our most ubiquitous, most complicated, most important component:- ourselves.

When we are not operating at our full potential, we make mistakes, but we also force errors and inefficiencies in others. If we were a software component we would identify our core elements, monitor them, and act. So how do we achieve this personally? By being mindful and compassionate, both unlocked by the practice of meditation.

This session will cut through the hype (and iPhone apps) and tap into your mindfulness and compassion. You will see how to keep human beings at the core of everything you say and do; how to stay awake and stop yourself (even when "flow" wants you to keep going); and to push yourself to confront those tasks you really don't want to perform.

Thanks @mwillbanks thats great feedback. I have this but failed to put it in the abstract. I'll redraft and hopefully it'll make a LOT more sense.
