4. Art of Creating and Managing Intention — Lesson 1

 Art of Creating and Managing Intention — Lesson 1 (A1–A2, short)

Where to start?
Start with a simple formula:

“I declare my intention…”

You must clearly say what you want.
Know your goal. Focus on the result.

In Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, a character says:
If you don’t know where you go, any road is fine.
This means: you must know your direction.

Many people know what they don’t want, but they don’t know what they want.
For example, a person says: “I don’t want problems” or “I don’t want illness.”
But this is not a goal.

A goal must be positive and clear.
Not: “I want to stop drinking.”
Better: “I want a healthy and sober life.”

Ask yourself:
What do I want?
What do I need for a happy life?

Write your intentions on paper.
Imagine a magician can give you anything. What do you ask?

Example intentions:

  • a job I love

  • good health

  • good friends

  • a happy family

  • money

  • a home

  • healthy loved ones

Check your list. Maybe some goals are old and not important now.

When you declare your intention, your mind starts working. Thoughts and emotions move you forward.


Exercise — Life Situation Check

Look at different areas of your life.

Physical health

  • Am I healthy?

  • Do I exercise?

  • Do I sleep well?

  • Do I eat well?

  • What can I improve?

Mental state

  • Do I feel calm and happy?

  • What worries me?

  • Do I learn and grow?

  • Do I work on my dream?

Family

  • Am I happy with my family life?

  • Do I give time to my family?

  • What do I want to change?

Work

  • Why do I work?

  • Do I like my job?

  • Does it help my dream?

  • What do I want in 5–10 years?

Money

  • Am I satisfied with my finances?

  • Do I have a financial plan?

  • What can I improve?

Home

  • Do I like where I live?

  • What can I change?

Social life

  • Do I have good relationships?

  • Do I help people?

  • Do people support me?

  • Do I have friends?

Repeat this exercise sometimes and compare answers.

If you care about your body and mind, other areas of life also improve.
