Intentions 2022

I first wrote about this on my Facebook page in 2018, and it is something I’ve been doing ever since.

Setting intentions!

Ok so it’s that time of year where we start thinking about change in January…. and the whole new year… new you band wagon... (which there is nothing wrong with)

It’s often a period of reflections, growth and change. And, after this last year, intentions may be the better route to take.

✿.。.:* ☆:**:. Have you resolved to change something for your new you? .:**:.☆*.:。.✿

I haven’t... but I’ll explain shortly. There nothing wrong with wanting to change something... but resolutions also place lots of pressure on us, especially if it’s something big and/ or really important to us.

We’ve all been there though and fallen off the wagon. So how do you feel? I mean, you skip a gym session, you eat a packet of hob nobs, you sprain an ankle and can’t do your daily runs? Pretty crappy, right?

⭐️ Well there is no need to feel this way... and here’s why…

A resolution is something that can often make us feel like we haven’t achieved what we set out to do and we have failed at something. Can be pretty discouraging and disheartening, there’s that crappy feeling.

⭐️ So here’s what I do instead of resolutions I put out intentions! Yep I put them right out there in public, into the door inverse and feel all the feels.

⭐️ So why don’t choose intentions over resolutions? An intention, is where you are a little kinder to yourself, so if you miss gym session, it’s ok, you just pick up where you left off. It’s not the end of the world. You still have the same motivation, but if you mess up, you just simply start again. Sound better? Let’s face it life happens when we are just making plans... so we have to adjust and adapt!

⭐️ Remember goals are not set in stone- there needs to be wiggle room and flexibility... so long as you’re trying your best, who could ask for more? 

⭐️ How many times have you thought, if I could just do/ have/ be this one thing my life will be so much better? Think back... was it actually better when you got there? More often than not, it hasn't made a difference to bettering your life, or you have already moved onto the next thing!

⭐️ So I recommend putting your intentions out there... and intend rather than resolve to accomplish your targets!

⭐️ So in 2022, the start of a new year, here are my 5 recommendations to help you implement positive intentions, be kinder to yourself and love the process and journey to reaching your targets and not just getting to the end result.
