The pictures in my collage frame at work were almost four years old. But, I always did other jobs first. Though it was my best intention to do it, it never happened. Today I awakened with a different determination. Rather than checking my email and Twitter messages, I deliberately chose to finish two tasks that I had been putting off.
I located some action pictures of our summer fun together, cut them and put them in the frame. It brought liveliness right from the start and refreshes my spirit every time I glance at it.
Another intention was to order a subscription to Inc. & Fast Company Magazine. I located the crumpled order form at the bottom of my purse, filled it out and put it in the mail. One of the reasons I ordered these is that every article stirs new insights and ideas related to MITA work. I look forward to the upcoming issues and new possibilities.
Even though target is the second step of MITA, I struggle most in this area. Completing these two tasks brought such pleasure to my day that I now choose to include one "intention" within each daily checklist. It worked like an elixir for a pick-me-up. And now I want more rewards like this.
Are you hitting your bull's eyes? Thoughts...

Lol, Robyn I procrastinate too a lot, but I did all my household bookkeeping the other day, wow it felt really good, I was even more inspired to do more things, lol. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and hope all is well. Anna :)
Anna, like you, I tend to procrastinate most on housework. Yet, when I complete it, I feel quite jubilant. What seems to motivate me is when our children and grandchildren come to visit and this happened two weeks ago and they were here for the week. It makes me feel like the purpose is larger than myself and then it means so much more. After they came, I contracted a flu bug they had been fighting the week before.
Very happy for your visit to the site and your comment as well.
