Aspirations, Intentions, Actions

“An unintentional life accepts everything and does nothing. An intentional life embraces only the things that will add to the mission of significance.” – John C Maxwell

“We either live with intention or exist by default.” – Kristin Armstrong

New Year’s Eve resolutions
Shifting to aspirations, intentions, actions
To keep growing and deepening
To not know everything so I can keep learning and unlearning
To be generous and kind
To enter familiar rooms with fresh eyes
To ask more questions and listen
To quiet and seek discernment
To slow for reflection then dive in with resolve
To say no more making room for yes to the right things
To see and welcome joy and gratitude during challenges, roadblocks and detours
To pursue awe, wonder, delight, inquiry, discovery, connection
To deepen trust, faith, patience
To receive grace, light, love
And give it away with abandon
Aspirations to keep becoming and unfolding
Intentions to focus time and attention
Daily actions to move aspirations and intentions into motion
Direction, aim, fire
Repeat.

“Action expresses priorities.” – Mahatma Gandhi
