Assuming and Creating Good Intentions
Taking the moment to set up success for your day.
It is very easy to get overwhelmed in this world.
It is very easy to get lost.
It is very easy to float through life without really being in touch with the world around you.
Now, more than ever, it is easy to lose sight of ourselves, our lives, our value, and our goals. With the majority of us allowing our lives to be run by a tiny screen that we hold in our hands, we have become a society of lost, wandering children. Disconnected from our humanity. Disconnected from our emotions. Driven by status updates on social media, celebrity gossip, and misery in the news. It is easy to become overwhelmed and lose your focus, but we have good news...
...it is also easy to reclaim your time.
You are given one life. One moment. One chance. Each day lived vicariously through a screen or swallowed up by your stress is one day in your precious life forfeited.
You are better than that.
Creating and setting daily intentions is the quick and easy way to create the space for you to live your life authentically, and achieve all of your goals and aspirations. It is terrifically easy to do:
1. Open your eyes in the morning.
2. Envision one thing that you will do in this day. Smile at a neighbor or hold a door for someone at the coffee shop. Walk to work. Finish that book. Take a walk. Call a friend. Something small, something positive. Something achievable.
3. Promise yourself that you will make this vision a reality.
4. Go into the world with intention on your heart to create your reality.
5. Live your intention.
6. Before closing your eyes for bed, reflect on your intention and how it made you feel.
7. Open your eyes in the morning, find the next positive thing you need in your life, and do it again.
It is simple. It is powerful. It will reclaim your ability to connect with this world and model a happier and more fruitful way of living for others. The world needs less mindless wandering and more intentional action. Be the light the world needs today, and make your very first daily intention a reality tomorrow.
