Episode notes

Identify what excites and inspires you to create goals that resonate on a deeper level. Rather than pursuing productivity merely for its own sake, focus on goals that arise from heartfelt intentions and the desire to make a positive difference in the lives of others and the world. Embrace a commitment to meaningful actions that reflect personal passion and care, and prioritize goals that light you up. This approach transforms obligations into opportunities for genuine impact and fulfillment.

Many of us start new projects or set goals with enthusiasm, only to find ourselves losing direction along the way. This often happens when we lack a clear understanding of the deeper intentions that should guide our actions. Without aligning our goals with our intentions, we risk moving forward without purpose, leading to frustration and burnout.

In this episode, we dive into the distinction between goals and intentions, exploring how these concepts play out in both Zen practice and our everyday lives. I discuss the importance of setting intentions that are aligned with our values, and how this alignment can help us navigate the challenges that arise when pursuing our goals. By combining mindful intentions with clear goals, we can create a more balanced and fulfilling approach to productivity.

Join me as we explore how integrating the principles of Zen into our goal-setting can transform the way we approach our work and our lives, helping us to stay grounded, present, and purposeful in all that we do.
