“Set intentions for your day: Have you noticed that when you’re shopping for a new car, it suddenly seems that every vehicle you see is the exact model you’re considering? That’s because your brain can only actually consciously perceive part of what’s going on around you at any time. What you notice is whatever matches things that are already top-of-mind. It’s a phenomenon researchers call “selective attention” and it’s why Webb suggests you become more deliberate about setting your intentions for the day.” Source
Note: What is your primary intention today? The intention you choose is consequential for the kind of day you’ll have. When we chose to get even with someone, our day will be filled with anger and recalling past grievances. Conversely, if we choose an intention to do a good deed for someone or to successfully complete a task, we’ll be filled with positive energy. It doesn’t seem to be a difficult choice. Yet, to make it, we have to be awake to what is happening in our minds when we start the day. We have the power to set our intention.
