There is a big world out there full of possibility and opportunity. So many people go through life doing what is necessary day in and day out, and they miss the details, the things that really matter, the small things that can lead to big things. Being in the moment is hard, but it really does have an impact on how you feel, and how you act and react throughout the day.
Being intentional is a mindset, and it takes practice and patience. Here are some simple tips you can start today for being intentional and living with purpose:
- Do what you love! Loving what your doing certainly makes it easier. So if you aren’t loving what your doing, then find something you love! You may have to make some sacrifices for now, you may have to do what you don’t love to sustain doing what you love for now, but do it anyway! It will pay off.
- Make the time. Stop making excuses. If you did just one thing every day, just imagine where you CAN be at the end of a week, a month, a year. So take the next step and do something -ANYTHING-towards your goal. You’ll be glad you did!
- Be great and work hard in everything you choose to do. It may not be the ideal situation right now, but everything you do is a part of the journey to where you are going. You never know who is watching, so be great today.
- Be grateful! “A grateful heart is a magnet for miracles.” So no matter how small, start and end each day with a moment of gratitude and blessing.
- Pay attention to the little things that you’re good at, that make you happy and get you excited. It could be the door opening to the next great thing in your life!
