This morning I realized I'd been purposefully setting a "daily intention" each morning for over a year. Today, my focus is a farewell for a dear friend who's moving away, so my intention is "friendship."
I think I started this habit to set a good example for a small group I coach. When I first started I picked any word that came to mind and didn't have any rules. As time went on I realized that sometimes I'd have the same word for days on end so I decided to repeat intentions no more than once a week (not a hard and fast rule, but a general guideline to keep myself open minded each day).
This only takes me a few seconds a day and I usually do it after my morning prayer and Bible study. I think the time is well spent because it helps me stay more focused and positive.
I edited a few entries (taking out, for example, the name of the guy who crashed into our bushes last January) but most are exactly as I set them. I'm sharing in hopes that it will help or inspire you in some way so if it does, please let me know.
