Living an Attractive Life: Start by Setting Good Intentions
You have the power to create the tone your day. In fact, a happy and successful life begins with the choices that we make every day, day after day. Yes, you have exciting goals for the further future, but let’s not forget that your life unfolds on a daily basis!
Try this Exercise: Every morning, sit down for a few minutes in a quiet place and gather your thoughts. Take just 5 minutes of reflective time to deliberately create an intention for your day. Think about the day ahead and envision how you wish for it to unfold. What do you have planned? What are you anticipating? If you expect good things, you’ll get good things. Declare what you want to see happening. All you have to do is see yourself enjoying all the elements and encounters that you want to experience today.
Here are some examples:
- I intend to strengthen a friendship today
- I intend to take one clear and specific step toward my goal today
- I intend to choose a lighthearted attitude, no matter what
- I intend to make exercise a part of my day
Coaching Tips: Keep your intentions short and simple. You’ll know you’re on track when you can say, “Yes! This is EXACTLY what matters most to me today.” And don’t over interpret this or worry about how your intention setting is going to work! If you trust that it will work, you don’t have to know how it works to get benefit. Simply allow good things to flow.
Until Next Week!
Yours in Abundance,
Christen
