Mindfulness helps a person to be aware of those facts that elude the superficial views of other people, to better understand the current situation and to predict the development of events.
Develop mindfulness
If you wondered why some people notice everything, while others see much less, you probably had to get acquainted with the following information. In the subconscious of a person there are specific filters that, as it were, obscure from him supposedly unimportant details of the surrounding reality. These filters are determined by many factors, for example, worldview, intelligence level, interest in life, mood, health, upbringing, public opinion, and so on.
It turns out that your brain deliberately overlooks those aspects of what is happening, which it considers habitual or irrelevant. To free yourself from such bias, you need to learn to live in the here and now and fully immerse yourself in the world that surrounds you at the moment. Get in the habit of taking the big picture without missing out on details. Don't go deep into your own thoughts.
There are special exercises for training attention and memory. Do them to always see more than some people around you. Logic games such as hidden objects will help you. In addition, you yourself can invent tasks for yourself to memorize a group of objects and further reproduce the picture from memory in thoughts. Swap objects and remember how they were originally located.
Don't be naive
Those individuals who do not believe empty words and pay attention to other signs see more. If you are too naive and gullible, it will be easy for you to be confused and deceived. Include critical thinking. Compare facts, find relationships between them. Look for confirmation of the words you hear in actions and external aspects.
This does not mean that you should become suspicious. You don't need to get paranoid. Just live with facts, not dreams. Don't wishful thinking. Think about what motives the people with whom you communicate may have. A person who sees only what others want and knows only what they are told will never have complete information.
Let go of stereotypes and expectations about what other people do or say. You don't have to think that you know what an individual can do. Do not think out for those around you. This is how you are deceiving yourself.
When communicating with a person, pay attention not only to the meaning of the words spoken by him, but also to the intonation with which he speaks them, what kind of facial expression he has at the same time. Such observation will help you understand the true meaning of the phrases that you hear from someone. Develop your discernment, and you will notice a lot around.
