On the other hand, mindfulness is increasingly being used as a method for achieving personal growth development as well as organizational progress. And while mindfulness was based on spiritual origin, it has also become a business practice nowadays.

In this theoretical framework, it is explained through the default network and direct network of the human brain contribute our thoughts and daily functions and how mindfulness co-related on both system positively for habit formation process which has been explained through the habit loop. It is observed that mindfulness helps to reduce the stress, pain, and fear which come as negative consequences of default network usage and how mindfulness can improve the positive outcome such as relaxation, concentration, and awareness which come from the direct network. The conceptual framework shows the positive relationship between goal achievement and habit loop via breaking existing bad habits and growing new good habits. Hence it can be perceived the certain track of goal setting through the intervention of the mindfulness process
