In life, it’s in our best interest to live intentionally and on purpose.
When you live an intentional life, you set yourself up for the best possible successful outcome.
When you don’t live your life with some kind of plan, you basically doom yourself to drift aimlessly—like a ship lost at sea, without a rudder, map, or compass.
Sure, you might be able to go places—but you’ll never quite know where you’re going or where you’ll end up.
And more than likely, you’re going to end up going nowhere while you drift in circles.
(And let’s be honest—none of us want that to happen.)
So today, we’re going to talk about 4 keys to living an intentional life.
These tips are simple, and can help to equip you to truly live each day to the fullest extent possible.
These keys can also help you to pursue greater levels of success in life.
Let’s dive into it.
1. Set Goals
When you write down goals for yourself, you actually statistically increase your odds of achieving success.
This is a fact that has been verified by scientific studies.
When you write down your goals, you prepare yourself to live with more intention every day—and that is most certainly a good thing.
2. Visualize Your Future
When you visualize your future, you basically learn to plot your course with the destination in mind.
And this is super important.
People who get really good at visualizing success are much more likely to achieve it.
3. Surround Yourself With Other Intentional People
Remember—you tend to be the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.
Therefore, it’s always in your best interest to try to spend time with as many high-value, high-performance, intentional people as possible.
If you don’t know anyone like that, then try listening to some podcasts or reading some books that were created by those types of people.
4. Be Self-Responsible
When you take responsibility for your life, and start thinking about everything in your life as stuff that you have real power over, you set yourself up to live a powerful intention-oriented life.
By contrast, people who blame their problems on other people, life circumstances, or even systems (like the government), generally end up failing to fully realize this power.
It isn’t always fun to take full responsibility for your choices in life. But when you embody this principle, you actually set yourself up to make the most intentional decisions possible.
And that’s incredibly important.
