Coaching Corner: What are you intending?

Coaching Corner: What are you intending?

Oct 26, 2012

By Marilou Butcher Roth

What I would like to offer to you today is the power of setting intentions. As you gently arouse yourself tomorrow morning from sleep, take just a moment and think about what you want from the day. It might be fun, productivity, ease, whatever feels most exciting for you. This is one of those simple actions that has impact beyond what you might think.

Setting intentions throughout the day will help you as well — what might your intention be with a phone conversation you are getting ready to have with a client? What could you intend before a listing consultation? Any activity that you are engaging in, pause, and think about what you want from the activity.

Many times in running workshops, I have participants write down their intention for the day on a sheet of paper and then have them put the paper away. When we are close to completing the workshop, they take out their written intentions and most of the time will find they achieved exactly what they had written on their paper!

Have fun with this — tune into you and what you want at the beginning and throughout out day!
