In today's episode, we talk about what it means to set an intention, why it's a good idea to do so, and how to go about it.

Show Notes:

1. Setting an intention is simply bringing your attention to a quality that you would like to emulate or cultivate.
   
   
2. Differences between an intention and a goal: 
   • A goal is about what you want to achieve, while intention is about a quality to personify
   • A goal focuses on outcomes, while intention guides your actions or qualities
   • A goal is future-focused, intention present-focused
   • A goal centers on an external achievement while intention centers around your relationships with yourself and others
3. Intentions help you achieve your goals by focusing your energy towards the qualities and actions needed to achieve them. It activates receptivity and manifestation by putting power behind it with all your actions.
