Going Through the Motions or Being Intentional

Do you approach your work, relationships, hobbies, your life by just going through the motions or are you intentional?  Did you think of what you wanted to accomplish today?  How you can improve?  Where or with whom you are going to make a difference?  Do you have a purpose?  Do you have a positive attitude?

Our time is so valuable.  You are investing a moment of your life on what you are doing at this moment.  You can just do what is required or you can acknowledge the worth of spending a portion of your life and give it all you have.  With gusto, purpose, pizzazz, excellence, and so on.  

It doesn’t matter where you are or what you are doing.  You can be at work doing the most mundane job, reading a story to a child, attending a pee wee baseball game, or mowing the lawn.  All of these tasks can be approached half-way (show up and just get through it) or all in (I’m going to do this with excellence).  

The choice is yours.  It is your life.  How are you going to spend the time?  Are you going to be highly effective or will you look back on a life of regrets and missed opportunity?  Dig in.

You just spent a minute reading this blog.  Take another two minutes and decide what you are now going to do intentionally as a result.
