A simple but missing element to get things done: great lesson learned from a simple experience

My only intention to go to a mall today was to buy a pair of Levi's jeans but while we were in the mall, I thought about going to the movies to see "Jurassic World" that my wife had told me weeks ago that she wanted to see it. It was 7:30 pm when I remembered going to the movies. When we went there, a lady told me that the show had started at 7:15 pm and there were only three sits in the first row (closest to the screen). Too late and we don't like to see a movie in the front row of seats. What this has to do with WA, success, blogging or making money?

IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE INTENTION TO DO SOMETHING, YOU WILL NOT DO IT. (OR THE PROBABILITY TO DO IT IS VERY, VERY LOW), PERIOD!

That was the lesson I learned today.

Great article - I too had to decide if I had the right intent to finish what I had started.

Intent won - my article is finished, published and indexed however, if I had pulled my self together and not allowed so many distractions I could have been doing this happy dance a week ago!

Thanks Susan for sharing your experience!

Hey Tom,
You are correct!! A very simple process that I forget to do many times!!!
When I go to the grocery store I will always and I mean ALWAYS have a list with me of what I need to buy. I never stray from that list!! I learned the hard way that a grocery list is very important.
Why can't I figured out that structure is important everywhere else too.

Tried and True

Thanks Elaine for your message!

I like this thought because all intention rests upon the choices we make for our day.

If We Let our best intentions stand focused, by our action we actually progress.

Thank you for the reminder...I need to reprioritize!

Have A super Day...thank you, Shine Brilliant

Very true Tom. It's also a lesson to plan ahead. There's an old saying that goes "If you fail to plan you plan to fail". Thanks for sharing. Jim

Thanks Jim!
