It is important that when pursing our own self-interest we should be “wise selfish” and not “foolish selfish”. Being foolish selfish means pursuing our own interests in a narrow, shortsighted way. Being wise selfish means taking a broader view and recognizing that our own long-term individual interest lies in the welfare of everyone. Being wise selfish means being compassionate.

Mindfulness is a beautiful path, regardless of your religion or belief system. I've been studying mindfulness and the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh for a couple years and am currently taking a Graduate course in Buddhist Traditions.
