I&#8217;ve said it. Have you?<\/p>\n<p>So now&#8217;s our chance. You have been granted your wish!<\/p>\n<h2>What do\u00a0you want to get out of our quarantine period?<\/h2>\n<p>What have you been focused on so far?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it&#8217;s to recover from the exhaustion you were experiencing just a few short weeks ago. Perhaps by now it feels like you&#8217;ve recovered?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe you&#8217;ve entered a new phase of boredom or aimlessness or frustration over not having a packed schedule to dictate your every move? Really pause and consider that.<\/p>\n<p>I invite you to remind yourself of all those things you once imagined you would do if you could just stop the world and find the time.<\/p>\n<h2>What can you set as an intention for this break from \u201cnormal life?\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Do you want to make a difference for others in a new\u00a0way?<\/p>\n<p>Organize something long overdue?<\/p>\n<p>Take on a project with your kids?<\/p>\n<p>Learn a new skill?<\/p>\n<p>Improve your personal relationships or reconnect with someone you&#8217;ve been out of touch with?<\/p>\n<p>Explore questions related to your mission and purpose?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/internalgroove.com\/2023dev\/resume-bling\/\">Update your resume<\/a> and craft a new template for a cover letter direction?<\/p>\n<p>Start writing that book you know you have in your head?<\/p>\n<p>Start that business plan you&#8217;ve been dreaming about!<\/p>\n<h2>This is potentially a very fruitful time if you are fortunate enough to be safe and well.<\/h2>\n<p>That makes us among the lucky ones.<\/p>\n<p>Use technology for good, rather than a means to increase your anxiety. Find a class, a group, an app, an organization, a website, a podcast\u2026 that facilitates the process of achieving your intention. It could be as simple as exploring a new style of music you haven&#8217;t listened to before.<\/p>\n<p>Brainstorm a list of ideas. Look for the things you said you&#8217;d do &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/internalgroove.com\/2023dev\/someday\/\">someday<\/a>.&#8221; And you already know &#8220;someday&#8221; is not the month after December. It&#8217;s now!<\/p>\n<p>And let me be clear.<\/p>\n<h2>You don&#8217;t HAVE to do more &#8220;doing,&#8221; so you might also consider intentionally shifting your inner world.<\/h2>\n<p>Maybe it&#8217;s about focusing on a habit, an emotional\u00a0pattern or a mindset. Consider optimizing sleep or slowing down your overthinking (aka brain-banging). What about\u00a0more relaxation in\u00a0your body? Maybe it&#8217;s the intention to recover from the pace you&#8217;ve been running at, prior to the quarantine.<\/p>\n<p>Distill your intention down to one word. In one word, <strong>what would you personally like to create in\u00a0your life in this unique\u00a0chapter?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Take yourself out of the \u201cstuck\u201d mindset, into the mindset of opportunity, and make a plan for <a href=\"https:\/\/internalgroove.com\/2023dev\/setting-intentions\/\">bringing your intention to life<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, in today\u2019s digitally connected world, we can take steps to accomplish almost anything online and have an abundance of resources at our fingertips so just get started with one step.
