Your Words of Wisdom (WOW) Guidance Card of the week for Living Life Better.

INTENTION

I say what I mean to do.
I choose to commit.

Definition: an aim or plan, determined to do, intended action

Other: desire, aspiration, preplanning

Opposite: directionless, unimportant, hindrance

An important time of your day begins with setting intentions. This practice honors the desire, dreams and hopes you have for yourself. Addressing these daily keeps you accountable and on track.

After making an intention does everything go smoothly as you planned? Are we able to control how our day will go? No. But we can decide how to approach anything that comes our way.

One of the intentions I often have in my life is TODAY I INTEND TO SEE THE SILVER LINING OF EVERY SITUATION. Some days are a disappointing reality of things not working out and some days are magical. Living with intention puts you in the driver’s seat by giving you the power to create how the day will affect you.

Decide first thing in the morning what you want your day to feel like. Align with your goals and dreams and maybe even a little from the to-do list also. Figure out the step needed to do the next right thing. Take a breath. Visualize your end of the day recap. Now set your intention.

Every day we can choose to commit to doing what we say we will do.

Find the good,
Becky and Janette
