My journey…and each of the journeys that you decide to embark on throughout your life (be it choosing your education, getting a new job, starting a business, improving your wellness, buying a new home, creating a work of art or writing a novel, reinventing your life…), each journey begins with a dream.
The dream may triggered by an outside circumstance. It might begin with a discovery or with a desire. It might be a mix of these things. Your dream calls you to move away from your comfortable ordinary life and into the unknown towards something new. Dreams are the seeds of future growth. So give yourself permission to dream. Unconditionally. Without boundaries. Be sure to take notes along the way. And know that the seeds of your dream might blossom into something very different than you imagine at the beginning. That’s the beauty of endless possibilities.
For your dream to become a journey, you need to be intentional about the way forward. Set your intention to create your guiding light. You don’t have to have a clear vision of the destination when you start your journey, or even of the pathway to get there…but it really does help to have a certain idea of the direction you wish to head in. This is your intention.
Every journey requires a map of some kind…so that you don’t get lost. It doesn’t matter if you switch directions once you’re on the path. Once you’ve set your intention, then make a plan to align your intention with actions. This might be a business plan, a project outline, a health plan, a travel plan…. A plan means putting down solid roots so that you can rise from a strong base.
Dream the dream. Set your intention. And then focus strongly on bringing it to life. It’s really true, what you focus on expands.
Here are three easy practices to help you to set and hold your intention:
And just begin it!
Happy travels.
