Hello!
Today we want to revisit an earlier request. If you haven’t done it, getting what you want out of this journey is practically impossible.
When you viewed the video outlining the guidelines of this detox you were asked to write in “The Book” what your intentions were for this program.
You were asked to: [See highlights for going further, if this is your second time]
Write:
1. Your specific intention – What are you trying to have happen in your life with this detox?
Review your earlier intnetion and refine or expand accordingly. Keep your same intention only if you did not accomplish it in October
If failure was NOT an option, how would you modify your intention?
2. WHY …SO important…WHY is that outcome important to you? And WHO will benefit? [“why and who”]
We return to this because it is essential. If you haven’t done it, please do. If you’re doing this detox just for fun and you really have little to no expectations of lasting impact on your life, then having a goal – not so necessary. But if you have a desire – spoken or buried to have your mind, body and spirit truly cleared of some baggage so that you can soar to another level of living then having a goal/clear intention is necessary. If you want the impact to last, you must be willing to put the work in ahead of time.
Share your intentions as well as the “why and who” with someone you trust and even emulate – put it out in the light and let it be heard….
So today,
- Reflect on your intention.
- Review what you wrote, refine it where necessary.
- Be as specific as you can get.
A vague goal will receive vague results. When the golfer or basketball player makes a shot – they have to see that goal, the hole and the basket crystal clear in their mind as they release or strike. They have to bring their body, thoughts and actions into alignment. Anything less is depending on luck to score.
Vividly, see your intentions, understand the ‘why’ and ‘who’ behind them.
Writing “I want to better at_______” is NOT specific. Define ‘better’ and state why and who. Take the why and peel it back…going further and further towards the deeper truth.
Here’s a good example of step #1:
“I intend to clear my thinking of recurring negative thoughts, replacing them with positive thoughts and actions; gain the energy needed to manage my daily household and family needs, without loosing my joy; and to learn more about peace and stillness and how to find it at will. My intention is to have these outcomes last.”
Step #2:
“These outcomes are important to me because negative thoughts kill my productivity and joy and my mission in life requires outrageous productivity and unceasing joy. I will be the first to benefit; my family and friends, colleagues and customers will benefit immediately after. Eventually, the people served by my mission (young girls who were abused) will benefit as I will be more capable of helping them at my highest and best. They will be able to move on and have healthy lives so their families and friends (now and in the future) will also benefit from me achieving my goals with this 21-day detox challenge.”
Massage your intention and get it to say EXACTLY what you are trying to accomplish. The more it reflects your deepest wish, the more motivated you will be to complete this challenge at your highest and best.
Wishing you a truly magnificent day!
Love & Light,
♥~
