Mindset Monday – Set Your Intentions

You may have heard the phrase, “set your intention,” which is planning and forethought regarding what you want to achieve. I never knew how powerful setting intentions was until recently, when I starting taking part in weekly mindset challenges by Jim Kwik.

A few weeks back, the challenge was to remember your dreams. To me, that sounded near impossible, as I don’t typically remember my dreams. The first of Jim’s tactics for remembering dreams is to set the intention before falling asleep. So, that’s what I did. I told myself I was going to dream vividly and remember. Guess what? IT WORKED!

This demonstrates the awesome power of the mind.

So…let’s do it! Take five minutes to set a few intentions for the upcoming week. What do you want to achieve at work? What actions will you take to live a healthier life? To be the best version of yourself?

Here are mine: I am experimenting with a fasting mimicking diet this week. I will listen to my body, stay focused and enjoy the process. I will enjoy taking a break from workouts. And I will also find time each day to meditate, as it always does wonders for me, personally.

Make it a great one!
