How to Live Intentionally

*Clears throat*…

Hey guys, guess who is back here!!! Me! *My heart sings for joy!!!

I have been so chocked up with a couple of things, career wise and I just had to take a break to focus more on what I am building and working on. A big Thank you to you for following my blog. You are the reason I am back now!!!

First things first, how have you been??? What have you been up to? (Please reply in the comment section) It’s okay to check on one another.

So today, I want to encourage you to continue to live intentionally about yourself. Live intentionally. Be accountable to taking responsibilities of all your decisions. You know quite alright that your decisions determines your destiny. Be ready to go for that which you want with listening to people who says you can’t be good at it. Aspire to be a better version of yourself daily.

Living intentionally simply means “Intentional living, which is any lifestyle based on an individual’s conscious attempt to live according to their values and beliefs. Which could also include self-improvement.

How to start living Intentionally

1) Examine yourself. Get to know yourself. Get to know your strengths, your weaknesses, your passion, your abilities, make conscious efforts in knowing who you are and what works for you. Dedicate time to getting to know yourself closely.

2) Know that you are Unique. Learn to stop comparing yourself with someone else. God created everyone of us differently so stop comparing yourself with people. You were born to live your life. You are born to fulfill your purpose. Stop wasting your time on what does not matter. You are Unique.

3) Stay focused. Staying focused goes a long way in your progress. We live in a world where one can easily get distracted, the constant peer pressure and measuring your progress with someone else could make you loose focus. Learn to ignore the distractions and be you no matter what.

4) Define your purpose. Identify what you want your life to communicate and contribute through you. Find a passion to live for that is bigger than yourself. Write it down. It will bring new meaning to your life.

5) Set goals. Setting goals keeps you focused and intentional. Set goals that are in line with your God given purpose. These goals keep you going even when you are not motivated. Remember setting your goals is the key to measuring your pace.

6) Have a Mentor. Identify people accomplishing your purpose and goals. Have a close study about their lives and aspire to learn from them. Reach out to them (if you can) to guide you through the process and endeavor to learn from them daily.

Life is made up of different choices. Always remember your decisions determine your destiny. Every morning is a new day full of decisions and opportunities. You get to pick your attitude and your decisions. You don’t have to let the circumstances of your past negatively determine the pattern of your life in the future.

Start Living Intentionally Today.

Till next time,
