Intentionally working with goals
- Think of your goal as an intention, not as a fixed path;
- If you notice you are attached to the fantasy of your goal, bring your focus to the present and what you can do now, in line with yout intention;
- Allow yourself to be flexibile - you can shift as you learn more;
- If/when you do arrive at your destination, stop and be present with it, appreciating your journey, appreciating where you are, without immediately turning to the next thing.
