I was just posting about an awesome couple of guitar courses we’re running in January and i realised i haven’t used this blog enough last year. That got me thinking about all the half hearted resolutions we make at the beginning of a new year, and how they slip into the lost land of “good intentions”.
Personally I’m on a mission to lose weight in 2012 so i can enjoy surfing in Cornwall this summer without feeling like an orca in my wetsuit! I’ve already lost 2 stone in 2011, which I’m very pleased about. When i think about it, it was because i made a DECISION to lose weight. In fact I’m still decided on losing more weight so i can feel happier and healthier in myself, (you have to look after yourself more when you hit 40!).
This brings me to the concept of intentions. An intention in my mind is a desire without the decision to take the action to make it happen.
For instance: Did you intend to learn guitar last year, but didn’t? Is it because you hadn’t decided you were going to learn the guitar. They sound similar but they are a completely different perspective to each other.
If you DECIDE to do something will nothing get in your way?
If you intend to do something will you get it done?
Intentions are wishy washy. Are you resolute in your decision to learn guitar/quit smoking/eat healthier/get more exercise or do you intend to maybe think about it?
This brings me to the subject of awesomeness!
If you HAVE decided to do something new for 2012, what if you pushed it a little further than you dared? I mean REALLY decide to do it, not just here and there, but GO FOR IT in a big way!
What could you achieve?
How would that make you feel about yourself?
How would others perceive you?
Life is short. You are here for a finite number of days. Dare yourself to be AWESOME! We can help
