Do you ever feel that you are rushing around aimless in the dark? Like you are rushing blindfolded with your hands outstretched, hoping that you don't bang into anything that will break or at a minimum leave a bruise? Life can certainly get overwhelming at times. Amidst our numerous ToDo's and obligations, we can lose connection with ourselves. Feeling lost, we go on auto pilot and before we know it weeks, months or years have gone by along with our sense of purpose and passion.
Most of us are comfortable with setting goals and priorities to complete a task list. And while I support this habit, I present you with a similar challenge that will bring focus to your day. How would your life be better if every day you allied with your values and increased your awareness of your thoughts and feelings? Your challenge this month is to foster living with intention.
There are many intentions that you can choose each day. The kind of intention I am encouraging you to reflect upon is defined by your intrinsic value system. Taking time to ponder your values will give them presence in your day. They will help you through decision making, feeling your feelings and communicating with others.
Right now, step out of the darkness and set a value driven intention. Not only will you feel an increased sense of self, you will also become more present. Knowing who we are in every instant of our days is critical to feel empowered.
Reality Check
You aspire intentionally when you:
* Become clear about your values and pledge to practice them each day.
* Allow your values versus other's opinions to lead your opinions.
* Take a moment each day to ascertain HOW you can bring your values to you day.
* Check in with your intention before reacting to your feelings or other's requests.
* Reflect on your day's intention and discover how it helped you.
Fearless Integration
1. Take a moment and contemplate your values. Examples of values include authenticity, rejuvenation, forgiveness, integrity, action or gratitude.
2. Declare an intention to practice one of your values. For example, "Today, I will practice rejuvenation."
3. Identify ways you can meet your intention. For example, schedule a break, acknowledge myself, reply no to other's requests, nurture myself, do one task at a time."
4. Remind yourself of your intention throughout your day and before reacting to a feeling or making a decision.
