Ep. 89 - Living with Intentionality


Listen Later

In this episode of Journal Party, we’re going deep into the concept of living with intentionality. Your host shares a personal story about recently making abrupt changes in behavior to better align with the person they intend to be. This episode is all about being mindful of our actions and making deliberate choices that reflect our core values and long-term goals. Living with intentionality is not always easy, but it’s a powerful way to create a life that truly resonates with who we are.

We start with a discussion on what it means to live intentionally. Our host explains that intentional living involves making conscious choices that align with your values and goals, even when it requires letting go of habits that feel good but lead you down the wrong path. This honesty with oneself and willingness to change is the essence of living intentionally.

To help you get started on this journey, we’ll guide you through five journal prompts designed to foster intentional living. Grab your journal and get ready to reflect deeply on your values, daily habits, goals, decision-making processes, and how to create a plan for intentional living.

Journal Prompt 1: Identify Your Core Values

We’ll begin by identifying your core values. These are the principles and beliefs that are most important to you and guide your decisions and actions. Take some time to reflect on what truly matters to you.

Journal Prompt 2: Reflect on Your Daily Habits

Next, we’ll look at your daily habits. Write about your typical day and how you spend your time. Consider whether your actions align with your core values. Identify activities that bring you closer to living intentionally and those that might be distractions.

Journal Prompt 3: Set Intentional Goals

Now, focus on setting intentional goals. Write down a few goals that align with your core values. These can be short-term or long-term. Reflect on how these goals reflect what you truly want in life and what steps you can take to achieve them intentionally.

Journal Prompt 4: Mindfulness in Decision Making

We’ll explore mindfulness in decision-making. Write about a recent decision you made and how you approached it. Were you mindful of your values and goals? Think about how you can bring more intentionality into your decision-making process.

Journal Prompt 5: Create an Intentional Living Plan

Finally, we’ll create an intentional living plan. Write about specific actions you can take daily, weekly, or monthly to live more intentionally. Consider how you will remind yourself to stay aligned with your values and goals and what practices you can incorporate to ensure you’re living with purpose.

In the outro, our host emphasizes that living with intention is a continuous journey. It’s all about making mindful choices every day and regularly checking in with yourself to ensure your actions reflect your values and goals. This might involve making tough decisions, but it’s all part of creating a life that truly resonates with who you are.
