Intention - Systems

Looking at my calendar for this week, I see a clear sign that I will be focusing on systems this week. I actually have homework from my coach that also has a systems-y ring to it. So, that makes it official. What will a systems intention look like?

I think it looks like spending dedicated time working out a process for my days, my coaching, my writing, my learning, my photography, my family, my home...it is almost as if I'm doing a little 'spring clean' of how I 'run things'. I plan to see if I can build a little bit more of an efficient system that helps me feel as though I have set aside appropriate time and space to do what I love to do with grace and ease.

Systems feel like...graceful easy flowy days, that is what I'd be working toward...imagine Glenda the Good Witch of the West floating around and the ideal would be that my magic wand takes care of anything! There's no place like home! (gag response ensues).

Intention - Rhythm

Each week I try (emphasis on try) to set an intention for the week. I look at the week ahead and decide on a word (or two) that represents what I want to feel. This week the word I've chosen is Rhythm. Rhythm to me feels as though I move through my day with deliberate focus but that it has a flow and ease to it. Specifically I intend to:


  • Write my blog daily

  • Write my morning pages (3 of them) daily

  • Work on my coaching business at least 3 hours each day without interruption

  • Set time blocks for checking email, facebook and blogs
My stretch goals for the week:


  1. Finish listening to my 12 hour-long taped classes

  2. Register my business with the State

  3. Read my Money Mojo ebook
You may be really bored right now watching me plan my week...but for me, I have a little spark of energy that makes me excited to get 'into the rhythm' of this week. My biggest challenge will be to NOT check email and other Internet sites on an hourly basis. I'm going to come up with some awesome reward for this!!!

In the meantime...my theme song for the week is this! How about you? What is your theme song?
