Happy Monday!
Today is a fresh day to take another step into becoming the person you were made to be. Don't think that you will get where you want to go by chance and just thinking about it. Setting intentions is a good thing but what will get you there is moving in the direction of your intention. "You can intend to go to Florida but if you hop on the highway and head North you are headed in the wrong direction." - Andy Stanley
I know from experience how transformative it can be to move in the direction of your intention.
In my book I share how in my head I was walking away from my marriage. My intention had always been to have a strong marriage but I had not been moving in the direction of that intention. I was spending hours out of the house teaching, putting others before my family and not putting any effort into my relationship with Stephen. Rather than leaving things up to chance, I chose to move in the direction of my intention of having a strong marriage. I started dedicating my time and energy to building up my relationship with Stephen. I aligned my thoughts, words and action with my intention and moved towards it day by day. Every day I am grateful for the choice I made to be the change I needed to be to strengthen my marriage.
I offer for you today to think about your intention(s). Then...
Pause. Breathe. Pray.
Think about the steps you need to take to move in the direction of your intention. Walk the walk today because if you change nothing, nothing will change.
Be the change.
Be well,
Shawn
