Abstract
Mindfulness is an increasingly popular topic that is now being talked about more than ever. Its benefits such as improved concentration, self-regulation and emotional intelligence, amongst others are abundant according to a variety of research. Benefits such as these are not excluding of the workplace and its employees. Such benefits can also be achieved among employees in the workplace. This study hypothesises that mindfulness will predict positively for goal progress as well as enhance the relationship between belonging and goal progress in working environments. A sample of 87 people from around Europe and the USA who work between 20 and 40 hours a week answered a series of questionnaires that consisted of one baseline questionnaire and two daily questionnaires that lasted for ten days consecutively. A moderation analysis using aggregated data found that trait mindfulness did not enhance the relationship between belonging and goal progress nor did it predict positively for goal progress alone. However, belonging did predict positively for goal progress. Therefore, more emphasis should be placed on the promotion of belonging in the workplace to maximise goal progress amongst colleagues. Keywords: mindfulness, belonging and goal progress
