"My goals mean a lot less when there are no obstacles for me to overcome in accomplishing them." - Johnnie Williams III
What is your intention (currently)?
We often aim this question at others in protection of our safety and security when socializing with them. But it is time time really explore this question for yourself...
Intention has been defined as a thing intended – an aim or plan – also the healing process of a wound.

Would our goals be worth accomplishing if they lacked the obstacles that make achievement feel worthwhile? But, why the obstacle – what purpose do they serve… Think About It!

Obstacles serve as the lessons that fall between our desire for things and the acquisition of those things. It’d be like:

• Sitting down for an exam for just showing up
• Winning the heart of someone special without any special effort
• Running a touchdown without any defense trying to stop you
• Being selected as the winner of a one person election

Would these scenarios make you feel special?

We were all once like the worm that aspired to fly, and the only way for it to overcome the obstacle of gravity was to self-isolate itself within a cocoon, and then struggle to escape it. The butterfly could just remain a word but there’s something driving it towards the desire to fly. So, what’s your intention?

Ask Yourself:

1. How would you define what a goal is or is not?
2. What is one of your most challenging goals you’re working on right now?
3. And, what are some of your obstacles?
