Are you tired of rushing through life like a "chicken without a head," waiting for the chaos to end before you can finally find peace?In this episode, I dive deep into the transformative power of intention, a divine decision made in union with God that allows you to change your entire experience without needing your external circumstances to shift at all.I share a personal story from November 2022, a day that was "supposed to be a disaster" as my father faced a cancer diagnosis while I managed a grueling work and travel schedule.By choosing to set an intention to be present and slow down, I discovered that you don't have to wait for a goal to be reached to experience the joy and peace you long for right now.In This Episode, You’ll Learn:- Intention vs. Goals: Why intentions are deeper emotional experiences that don't depend on a measurable outcome.- The Power of Deciding: How true "decision" means removing all other possibilities, like choosing happiness over misery.- Connecting to Divine Power: How to turn on your "spiritual GPS" and surrender to God's guidance to find the right path.- Living with Purpose: How to transform everyday chores, like doing dishes or folding laundry, into meaningful acts of love.- Measuring "The Gain": Why you should measure progress by looking backward at how far you've come rather than looking forward at the "gap".- Creating a North Star: How to use a "Word of the Year" and monthly intentions to guide your emotions and decisions.Resources & Links:Step Into Your Purpose: Learn about my programs at FaithAndGrowth.comTake Action: Book a call at TalkToBetsy.comRead the Book: Grab my book, Hurt 2 Hope: Heal the Pain of Grief, Loss, and Adversity https://a.co/d/awwbAgcGet the App: Download the Better with Betsy App and gain 24/7 access to Betsy through her Betsy Bot!Living with intention means you are the producer and director of your life, not your circumstances.
