Mondo Beyondo Part 2: Intentions for 2008

It is my intention this year to give up my job and begin my business. It is my intention to make two handbags and two other craft projects a week. It is my intention to source for ethnic ethical African goods to sell. It is my intention to get my Etsy store up and running by the end of March.

It is my intention to develop spiritually this year through prayer, meditation, yoga and exploration. It is my intention to have an open mind and be ready to receive all the goodness that is coming my way.

It is my intention to live in the NOW of life and not project too much into the future thus worrying about things I have no control over. It is my intention to let go of the past and not let it eat me up. It is my intention to forgive.

It is my intention to build on my relationship with my daughter – to cut down on my yelling and to engage more with her. It is my intention to be more in control of the relationship and not let my buttons be pushed by her so much.

It is my intention to take care of my body – it is a temple and I intend to treat it as such. It is my intention to be more mindful of what I feed it, how I treat it and to listen when it speaks to me. It is my intention to nourish it with the best foods I can find.

It is my intention to live authentically this year. To be true to myself and my belief system. It is my intention to listen to others but to follow my heart at the end of the day and not base my life choices on what other people think.

It is my intention to rid myself of all negative energy both internal (i.e negative thoughts, negative affirmations and negative actions) and external (i.e negative friends, bad TV, mindless literal media, idle chatter).

It is my intention to be more mindful of the language I use in daily life. Language I use in regards to myself, others and the world at large.

It is my intention to form opinions, make judgements and decisions from an informed perspective and not from the perspectives of others.

It is my intention to take control of my temper and my moods, to breathe and walk away when it all overwhelms. It is my intention to not let my mood for the day be dictated by an occurrence, event or external force. It is my intention to allow my happiness, peace and calm come from within.

It is my intention to put these intentions into practice.

I LOVE you Mondo Beyond list... I'm actually just posting about making that kind of list on my blog right now.

But I see your list is old, so my curiosity overwhelms me: how is the list going?

Thank you Megan. Ah, like all good intentions something always happens to scupper them, doesn't it. some of my intentions are going better than others and some haven't gotten off the ground at all (haven't 'opened' my etsy shop yet :( ) Would love to have seen your list but you didn't leave your link.
