Mandaris

Years ago, I dedicated myself to a theme inspired by Mike Hurley and Gray’s yearly theme methodology. I told the people around me and even put my money where my mouth was by purchasing the associated notebook.

I didn’t use the notebook.

But, I kept it with me, and it acted as a reminder that I was going to follow that theme.

It was a good year.

I want to go back to feeling that way again.

So, I’m declaring it here that I’ll be going back to my theme and making it my way of life going forward.

That theme is Intention.

I intend to live the rest of my life with more purpose in what I do. It doesn’t need to be planned to the minute, but I want to be able to say that the things that I’m doing are by and large because I intend to do it.

I know that life is unpredictable, but I have seen it time and time again that unless I’m present in that moment, the decisions in my life will be made for me.

I don’t know how much time I have left, but I’m intending to be there in the moments that I have left.
