Do you usually set resolutions for the New Year that are impossible to fulfill? Do you find yourself constantly adjusting the goalpost of what defines success in your life?
Today, host Chrystal Rose explains why setting intentions leads to more happiness than setting goals. As high-achievers, we often believe that we need to complete certain tasks by a certain time and then feel like failures if other things get in the way. Instead of pursuing resolutions that make us miserable, Chrystal believes in choosing intentions, such as joy, that lead to the kind of decision making that actually betters our lives.
Tune into today’s episode of Self-Love for Breakfast for a conversation about setting positive intentions in the New Year. Learn how to release arbitrary goals, appreciate life’s little milestones, and make your journey feel like the destination.
Quotes
• “Why not try something different? Why not, instead of resolutions, we set intentions?” (02:12-02:18)
• “The thing I love about setting intentions is that when you intend to experience joy, or like this year, it's all about joy, you tend to make more decisions that are going to lean towards resulting in joy.” (03:20-03:37)
• “Having these little milestones along the way makes that bigger goal not seem so horribly long to get to.” (05:24-05:32)
• “If your journey doesn't feel like the destination, you are doing something wrong.” (05:49-05:52)
• “We need to understand that our fulfillment and happiness come first. It comes before some arbitrary goal we set. The only person we owe is ourselves.” (09:12-09:24)
