Planning your goal each day is something we often neglect. As we all know, Planning is the most basic yet the hardest thing to do in order to achieve our goals. May it be a short-term or long-term goal planning is crucial. However, planning is not just the only key to a successful life but practicing living intentionally. Living intentionally means feeling good about how your life is going because you get things done by being intentional. That in itself is a pretty strong reason to keep that habit!

Living intentionally should be a habit of yours
Living intentionally doesn’t mean you try to control everything. It just means that you make decisions based on what you really want and need, instead of waiting for others to tell you what to do. So why do we really need to have this habit?
You will become more reliable.
If you’re living intentionally, you know exactly what needs to happen next and can set aside time for it. You can stop worrying about whether or not you will follow through.

You will build a meaningful lifestyle.
When you live intentionally, every step of the action plan is meaningful, because each step came from a true desire and an honest assessment of what’s needed to get there. It holds together because each part is connected to the next.

You will become more self-aware.
One way to start living intentionally is by checking in with yourself at regular intervals throughout the day – kind of like a miniature meditative session for your mind or spirit. If a thought pops into our head during one of these moments that seems important enough for an extra-long meditation session, we can spend some time focusing on it before moving on with our day as usual.

Living intentionally means bringing intentional decisions to the table and discerning what is important to you and of course being true to yourself, especially in the choices you make along the journey. So start now to achieve more!
