Hello my Get Uncomfortable compadre!

If you're new to the show, welcome! I hope you enjoy the show today surround cultivating more intention in your day to day life.

If you do find value in the show, learn something, get inspired, or laugh I ask that you share the show in some capacity. Send it to a friend, share it on social media, or email it to someone you know would enjoy it or learn from it.

I have been ruminating on the idea of being more intentional in my day to day life, even in mundane tasks. How much more enjoyment or presence can I get out everyday?

The answer is probably a shit load to put it bluntly. I often find myself going through the motions in many situations. Driving, eating, being at home, and exercising all fall into autopilot often.

I decided to think a little more deeply on how I can make more flow states in my life through being intentional often. I plan to cultivate more intentionality purposefully in order to really get the most out of everyday.  I want to be involved and open to what shows up.

The book I'm reading: Flow- The Psychology of Optimal Experience breaks down a process to help facilitate turning any activity into a flow opportunity.

A) To set an overall goal and as many subgoals are as realistically feasible

B) Find a way to measure progress in terms of the goals chosen

C) Keep concentrating on what one is doing and keep making finer and finer distinctions in the challenges involved in the activity

D) Develop the skills necessary to interact with the opportunities available

E) Keep raising the stakes if the activity becomes boring

I'm planning on applying this to things I normally wouldn't think to do, even something as simple as walking.
