can you count the letter i in:
it’s that time of year again. everyone is ready to make resolutions for the new year.
resolutions don’t work.
in fact, less than 10% of people keep their resolutions.
that’s a 90% fail rate.
this is a terrible statistic.
a resolution is a specific goal to change something you don’t like about yourself. they are born from the negative and because of that, you typically drop your resolutions after a few weeks. after you drop them, you feel badly about yourself.
based on the mind and what it deems to be unacceptable.
trying to fix, cull or sharpen.
determined by the calendar and not on your wants, needs and desires.
throw that negative, failing and calendar-based tradition away.
invite intentions into your life and watch the magic unfold.
setting intentions is fun, supportive and powerful.
it’s a time to relax, unwind and wonder.
wish, dream, create.
lift yourself up, instead of being dragged down.
intentions are positive and heartfelt. they’re based on dreams and desires. they help you blossom and surround yourself with support, making it easier to step into opportunity.
intentions matter because the entire process links your mind, heart and soul. they help you open your mind to the wonder of wishes, tap into your heart to dream and step into your power. intentions are about the creative process, not hardline production to achieve specific results.
creating intentions involves time for reflection and dreaming, connecting with yourself and opening to possibility.
gathering a beautiful journal or stationary. grab your favorite beverage and writing utensil. pens, markers, colored pencils are all appropriate writing implements.
after you’ve reflected or meditated, write your wishes. wonder, imagine, ponder. your intentions should make you feel good, not pressured.
draw them out. make them pretty.
the biggest criticism about intentions is the inability to quantify whether you’ve achieved them or not.
intentions aren’t measurable – on purpose. they open you up to you. just like you’re not measurable, intentions aren’t either.
and just like you, intentions can be realized when you envision, fuel and open up to them.
activate them with a pinterest board or vision journal.
do a heart link with them.
display them somewhere – in a frame by your bedside, on your refrigerator or tapped to your bathroom mirror.
talk with a friend about your intentions.
you can get make your intentions real when you develop your intuition, drop into your heart and follow your soul’s destiny.
