Tell that to the person who steps out in front of a bus because their mind was fixated on thoughts of the past or imagining the future instead of being aware of what’s happening in the present moment.

Shamatha mindfulness meditation does not prevent a practitioner from being mature, nor does it prevent planning for the future. It simply provides another dimension to one’s perceptive ability.It takes practice, generosity and self discipline to bring it about. Its been practiced by warriors and protectors all over the world for thousands of years, and will be practiced for thousands more.
