If a man happens to find himself, he has a mansion which he can inhabit with dignity all the days of his life.

Live by intention

What can you do today that would create real fulfillment of the purpose you know is yours? Take a deep breath, feel the immense power of your intention, and do it.

How can you bring your own unique beauty and perspective to this moment and to the circumstances in which you find yourself? With a joyous, generous heart, give that beauty expression in your actions right now.

If you live merely by reaction, you’re always playing catch up, and that’s not really living. Choose to live by intention.

When you have a thought or a feeling or a desire, explore it, seek to understand it and to follow where it leads. You can have a positive and meaningful influence on each moment, so take the opportunity to exercise that influence.

Put the special, one-of-a-kind beauty of who you are into practice here, now and always. Fill your days with the value and satisfaction of authentic living.

Live by intention, from the inside out. Do, say and be what you know is truly you.

— Ralph Marston
