Day 43: Intention

"It is not good enough for things to be planned - they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation.” - Walt Kelly

I've been thinking a lot about my intentions lately. As the character of a man, can be judged by his intentions. Are your intentions where they should be? Are you intentions in line with your goals? Intention to change is not change. You have to actually make the changes, but the first step is the intention to change. After you have your intentions correct, then you can begin to make steps forward towards your goals.

Thinking about changing, and continuously talking about changing, is just a waste of time and breath. It gets you no where. Sometimes talking helps, and is needed; but it's not action. It's not productive. Change has to be made in your heart, your mind, and your soul. You have to focus on your ultimate goals, and make a straight line for them. The shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line. Taking any other route would be a waste of time. Live to your maximum potential.

Keep the correct intentions in your mind in your heart; and put your intentions in to your behaviors and your actions. Keep your word. Be honest. Be real, and face reality. Accept the things you cannot change, and have courage to change the things that you can.

Do not accept anything less than your best. Do not settle for anything less than your ultimate desires. Nothing worth while is achieved easily. Do the hard thing, and get what you want. Create yourself. Self-justification: Making yourself right in your own eyes.
