Why Being Intentional Is the Key to Reprogramming Your Mindset

Consciously or not, we are training our brains … all the time.

When we choose comfort over growth we’re telling our brains we’re happy to stay where we are. When we choose not to call out someone’s behaviour we’re telling our brains it’s what we deserve. When we repeatedly put others first, we’re telling our brains we have no value.

Unless we take time to reflect on what we want and where we are heading our brain is happy to drift along in it’s old patterns of thinking and responses which may no longer serve us.

A smart, successful friend recently asked me what it meant ‘being intentional’, sounding a little suspicious of the idea. When I said I thought it was being clear about what you wanted and how you wanted things to be, his face softened like that wasn’t such a bad thing and admitted that was something he rarely did.

So what do you want your brain to expect? Because if you’re not making a choice, your brain will stick with what it knows best.
