Set an intention

Set yourself an intention for this day, and experience how right it feels to follow that intention. Follow it with passion, with a sense of purpose, and with a real zest for the mission.

Find delight in the satisfaction of investing the time, going through the trouble, and making something valuable happen. Bring your great potential to life and see firsthand how empowering that feels.

Remind yourself how amazing it is that you can envision whatever you choose, and can then lock in that vision with a specific plan. And realize what’s even more powerful is that you can put your plan into action.

You don’t have to just sit there and live with whatever comes. You can decide what you want to achieve on this day and you can work to make it so.

When the troubles and complications come, as they will, you can choose to see them for what they truly are. What they truly are, are opportunities to create even more value and to make even more of a positive difference.

Here you are on this day that’s overflowing with possibilities. Set an intention, choose a direction, see the treasure that’s well within your reach, and go for it.

— Ralph Marston
