Good intentions don’t create change — we have to change our thought process while taking positive action. We need to create a cycle where thought, word, and action all move in the same direction.

Try this meditation for one minute every day, or longer if you want to:

I TAKE MY GOOD INTENTIONS and channel them into positive action. As good thoughts become good actions, the deepest intentions of my heart become reality.

This meditation was adapted from A Mindful Day: 365 Ways to Live Life With Peace, Clarity, and an Open Heart, by David Dillard-Wright. How did it go for you? Share your thoughts and feelings in Shorelines and you’ll be entered to win a copy of the book! —Pat Ingelse, AVP and PMP
