What Are Your Intentions?

Have you put some thought into what your intentions are? This is the time of year that many give up on their goals and resolutions.  It is easy to fall back into old habits. The trick is to remind yourself daily what your intentions and goals are. Writing them down in a journal or planner is the first step in making progress. You will find that reading them over once daily is very beneficial and will help you remember your why!

My Personal Intentions For This Year

After reviewing the past 30 days of intentions, there were certain ones that really stuck out to me and made me reflect on my behaviors and habits. I decided to highlight these and really make an effort to make some lasting changes.

• Remember my accomplishments and be proud of the positive things I have done in life so far.
• Express myself more and react in a positive way and get out of my comfort zone.
• Be consistent with healthy eating and daily exercise.
• Work on a positive mindset and body image.
• Say positive affirmations daily OUTLOUD!
• Remember what my dreams are and not give up on them… like traveling around the world!
• Continue to follow inspirational and spiritual leaders to help reduce anxiety and fear.

Your Next Steps

If you haven’t done this already, grab a journal and write out your answers to all 30 days of intentions. Then review it once daily to remember what you want to change about your life. Choose a few things to work on at a time.

Keep reminding yourself that things will get better in time. This will take effort.  You deserve to be the best version of yourself and live a happy and fulfilling life! Here’s to making small changes each day that will improve your mindset and help you realize your purpose and passions in life.
