Taking Intentional Action
About This Book
Most of us mean well. We want to eat better, move more, read more and spend less time on our phones, and we want warmer relationships with partners, children, friends and colleagues. Yet daily life tends to be driven by whatever feels most urgent, so we feel stretched thin, stuck, and always waiting for a calmer season. In that gap, excuses and circumstances beyond our control end up winning out over our intentions. Desiree Petrich argues that a busy, even overwhelming life can still be one of purpose and passion. The first step is a choice to look for purpose, passion and gratitude in each day, including the hard ones. From there, the book points toward a few habits: getting to know yourself better over time, keeping your inner dialogue positive and productive, and focusing on what is actually within your control. Petrich organizes her advice around a framework she calls the Foundation of Self, which aims to build self-engagement, self-worth and self-awareness, all tied to living the happy life you choose. She draws on her own failures and successes, hoping readers will use them on their path toward becoming their best selves and feel encouraged to act on their goals and dreams.
