GOOD INTENTIONS VS. INTENTIONAL LIVING
KEY DIFFERENCE
- Deciding to act!
FOCUS ON ENERGY INSTEAD OF TIME
- There are many abilities and talents you can increase and expand
- You can’t expand time! It is what it is.
- Focus on what you need to do to MAXIMIZE every moment of the scarce time you have.
BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT YOU
START WITH THESE THREE PILLARS OF PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
- Think positively
- Take responsibility
- Don’t blame others
HOW TO MAXIMIZE ENERGY
WHEN AM I FULLY CHARGED?
- When your mind is sharp
- When your body is strong
- When you have high levels of engagement and well-being
HOW DO YOU GET THERE?
LIVE IN YOUR GIFT ZONE
For those of yoy who know me, you know I am all about relationships–logic is secondary. With that, I am fully charged when I:
- Lead, create, communicate
- Those are my gifts. I was created to do those things!
ASK YOURSELF
What was I created for? How can I best use my gifts and what am I good at?
- What activities make you feel that way?
INVEST IN FAMILY AND FRIENDS
- It is more blessed to give than to receive
- When you focus on others rather than on yourself it just does something doesn’t it?
- You feel satisfied, joyful, wishing you could do more, and eager for the next interaction.
ASK YOURSELF
Who can I call today that hasn’t heard from me in a while? Simply put: FIND SOMEBODY TO SERVE!
- What kind of interactions fill you with energy?
ADD VALUE TO OTHERS
- In order to really make a lasting and significant impact in this world you need to LOVE PEOPLE
- Every day look for ways to add value to those around you.
ASK YOURSELF
Who can I call today that hasn’t heard from me in a while? Simply put: FIND SOMEBODY TO SERVE!
- What activities done for others strengthen your sense of purpose?
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF PHYSICALLY
- Taking time for rest and to be physically active is not selfish. In fact, it’s the opposite.
- You were put on this earth to use your gifts and make a difference.
- Therefore, you need to be around for a long time!
- Being unhealthy, not eating right, etc. can cause depression, lethargy, brain fog, chronic sickness, and a long list of other issues.
- BOTTOM LINE: The world needs what you have! Make sure you are around for it.
- WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR YOUR PHYSICAL HEALTH?
PERFECTION IS THE ENEMY OF PROGRESS
- I’m a perfectionist and I will start when it’s perfect. YOU WILL NEVER GET STARTED!
- Nobody is perfect. Nothing is perfect. Perfection doesn’t exist.
- GETMO! GOOD ENOUGH TO MOVE ON
- DONE is almost always better than perfection
- Actually, DONE is almost always better than even good!
- WHAT HAVEN’T YOU STARTED BECAUSE YOU ARE WAITING FOR THE PERFECT TIME?
BE A CATALYST FOR GROWTH
- There is no passion to be found in playing small–in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living”. -Nelson Mandela
