Happy August! Applaud yourself for making it to another month. For some of you, the previous month could have felt like you were on cloud nine while for others July was full of challenges. Regardless of what your July looked like, you made it to this point. Let's talk about intention.
Since we are at the start of a new month, I want you to be super mindful of how you choose to move forward. It's time to set your intention. Think about a goal that you have for yourself, and remove all outside factors. This means that for right now, set a goal or goals that are reflective of where you want to be and how you want yourself to feel outside of stressors like finances, work, and your relationships with others. I'll go first. For the month of August, my goal is to feel peaceful, focused, and confident.
So now that the goal is set, the question is: "How do we get there?". The great thing about our past is the fact that we have experiences that we can learn from. Use your experiences from July to figure out what drew you closer to this month's goals that you set and also think about what pulled you away. So my personal task would be to reflect on the things that drew me closer to being peaceful, focused, and confident in July. Then I'll follow that up with thinking about the things that pulled me away from those goals.
By doing this, it should help you see clearly what things you need to continue to do as well as the things that you should let go of. It seems to be the norm to make goals that revolve around our finances, our career, and our relationships with our friends, our partners, and our families. However, it is so important to make goals that solely revolve around how you want to feel and how you want to show up.
There are so many uncontrollable factors in life, but the one thing that you will always have control over is yourself. Circumstances may change, people may change, but you always have you. With that being said, it is important to check in with yourself.
For the month of August, set the intention. Set your own pace. Learn from your past to develop a better you for the future. You got this!
See you next month,
-Angel
