In this solo episode of Message In the Middle, host Marianne explores what it means to live intentionally, shares examples from her own life, offers insights on key areas to look at if you want to get out of auto pilot and move to a more intentional way of living, and shares some of the benefits of doing so.  

Key Topics Discussed

  • Understanding Intentional Living: We begin by defining intentional living as making conscious choices to shape your life, rather than simply reacting to circumstances. 
  • Foundational Components of Intentional Living: Learn about key principles like self-reflection, goal setting, mindfulness, being present, and building a support system to support you as you integrate these practices into your daily routine and learn about the changes you might experience once you make the shift.

Takeaways

  • Be Proactive, Not Reactive: Embrace a proactive approach to your life by making conscious choices that align with your values.
  • Self-Reflection is Key: Regular self-reflection can help you identify what truly matters, allowing you to set meaningful goals.
  • Goal & Priority Alignment:  Revisit goals and priorities regularly to ensure they stay in alignment with core values. 
  • Being Mindful and Present:  You can't focus your time and energy on living in the past or over planning the future. 
  • Support Matters:  Surrounding yourself with supportive, and like-minded people will help keep you propelling forward.  

In closing, Marianne shared a John Maxwell quote "Intentional living is about making conscious decisions every day that move you toward the life you want."
