Hey there, and welcome to Wake Me Up.

This week, we've been talking about intentions,

specifically good intentions.

They pay off even if you make mistakes.

Today in this motivational bit, we'll dive deeper into the concept of intentions

and see how they really play a huge role in our lives, more than

you may think.

Then we'll align ourselves towards having good intentions all of the time, so that we can see the benefits that come from a well-intentioned mind.

But before we dive in, just pause for one moment.

Take a deep breath

and release.

And just envision for a second what your life would be like if you were always well-intentioned and surrounded by people like that too.

Maybe even close your eyes while you do this if you'd like. Visualize that life.

And consider what might change about your career or the other aspects of your life. What might happen to your mood. Take a deep breath in and soak up all of the possibilities in that well-intentioned future.

And then exhale and just let that all go.

Now, feel free to go about your morning routine. Doing whatever you like, whether that's making a cup of coffee or tea, having a stretch, going for a walk,

journaling, whatever you'd like.

And while you do that, let's dive deeper into the ways that intention unconsciously shapes our lives.

The truth is intentions underlie everything.

And that's odd because we rarely talk about them.
