Intentional living is a super-power. It is the ability to make our own choices before someone else makes them for us.
To attain true self-realization and self-actualization, to grow from the “manure” that can be poured over our living gardens, we must learn “intentional living.” This is a combination of mental toughness, and the understanding that we always have a choice about how we handle hardship, challenge, and mediocrity.
Wishing, dreaming and hoping won’t cut it. To break free from mediocrity, your entire life needs to follow certain very specific positive habits. Five key habits will help you break free from aimlessly wandering through life. These will help you to use challenging moments to grow into a completely different – and far better – version of yourself. These are at your fingertips. Without them, you’ll slosh around like water in a bucket, wondering why other people always seem to get ahead.
The poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.” The irony though, is that when you live with intention, you also end up being happy.
Our thoughts turn into actions, and while we may have little control over the past habitual thinking we engaged in which helped bring us to the outcomes we are experiencing now, we can make a strong choice now to determine the trajectory of our lives going forward: one path leads toward depression, self-doubt, and a lack of motivation while the other path leads to an extraordinarily -lived life.
Make no mistake. All superbly successful people know exactly how mentally tough they must be to live intentionally. Steel is forged in the fire of this emotional resilience. The source of your true power is to learn how to respond positively to the mud just as much as to the budding tree that grew from it.
To think clearly and act decisively, you will need to know how to eat right for mental and physical power, sleep right for restoration and cellular repair, know exactly which supplements can augment the Standard American Diet (S.A.D.), and detox safely so that your body and mind don’t become clogged up with more than 10,000 chemical toxins that are in our environment today.
