Set your Intentions

Hi Everyone!

Today, I am going to talk about setting your intention for the day. This is something that I think is really important and I believe it can change your life. So, how do you set your intention for the day? It sounds hard, but it’s really easy.

The best thing to do right when you wake up is say something like: today is going to be a great day. Not only say this but believe it. Put a smile on your face. Take some deep breaths. 

Now think about what you want and need to get done for the day. Envision yourself getting everything on this list done. Think about how you will feel when everything is done and you are settling down for the night. 

Next, we should do something that really resonates with us. What is something you love to do or something that is really important to you? My activities that I love to do in the morning are: reading, working out, writing a blog, or creating a listing for reselling. They are things that I love to do, but don’t always have time to do throughout the day. If I put a priority on them at the beginning of the day not only will I feel accomplished but I also will feel fulfilled. 

Set yourself up for success. Are you going to the gym in the morning? Set out your gym clothes and your gym bag. Are you going to read your book? Set it on your nightstand. Are you going to write a blog? Come up with the topic ahead of time so that you can get right to writing. Make it easy on yourself so that you can do your activity with little to no resistance. 

Make sure that you are getting enough sleep. If you are not getting enough sleep, you may feel the urge to hit your snooze button. Doing this will not set your day off with a good intention, in fact it can do the opposite! If you hit snooze, you may no longer have time to do those activities that really resonate with you. So if you find yourself doing this often, go to bed earlier. 

Last but not least, do not get on your phone as soon as you wake up. Make sure that you are focusing on you and your intentions for the day before you even touch your phone. Do your resonating activity and then you can check your notifications. That way your intention for the day will already be set and you will be ready for whatever the world throws at you!
