Do you feel like your days are passing you by and they are just happening to you? I have felt like this before, and it does not feel good. I remember thinking that there has to be another way…
What I have learned is we don’t have to wait for someone or something else to change this feeling. We have the power; it is just about learning how to unlock it. One key to accomplish this is using intention setting. Now before you roll your eyes and think that I am losing it, hear me out!
Intentions are a way to create focus and meaning in a busy life. Taking a few moments each morning can literally change your day and when you change your days, you change your life.
Ready to get started? Here is how to do it in 6 steps:
- Start with asking yourself how you would like to feel today, or maybe it is easier to think about how you don’t want to feel. Some examples would be I want to feel joy, calm, healthy or I don’t want to feel unproductive, tired, frustrated.
- Once you have that clarity write it down. For this one, use positive statements so if you said I don’t want to feel tired, when you write it down say- I want to feel energized or awake. Write it on a sticky note or in your journal.
- Then, make it specific, not vague and add an intentional action, here are some examples…I intend to feel energized by eating whole foods, drinking 60 ounces of water and taking a walk around the block.
- I intend to feel calm by approaching challenges with an open mindset
- I intend to feel productive by writing out my top 3 priorities and focusing on them before anything else.
- Take a moment to close your eyes and visualize what this looks like when you fulfill your intention. Maybe you picture yourself smiling, checking off your to-do list, etc.
- Check in with yourself throughout the day and see how it’s going. Giving yourself grace and space to make adjustments as needed, or a reminder of your intention.
- Evaluate how you feel at the end of your day. What did you learn? What was most helpful? etc. Then repeat the next day!
