Living an Intentional Life: Alignment Before Action

Living an intentional life creates space to realign, refocus, and consciously choose what you want to create. As a new year begins, many people turn to resolutions to reset. I stepped away from New Year’s resolutions years ago because, by day three, I often felt I had already failed.

That cycle of pressure, self-judgment, and guilt never felt supportive. When I shifted from setting resolutions to setting intentions, everything changed. Intention brought grace into the process. It allowed room for growth, learning, and compassion rather than rigid expectations.

Why Intention Creates Alignment

Intention invites flexibility. It allows for errors, pivots, and unexpected lessons without the weight of shame. When you focus on the desired outcome rather than perfection, you begin to recognize progress and small victories along the way.

This shift supports alignment before action, getting grounded to ensure your choices reflect what truly matters to you, rather than reacting under pressure or obligation.

Releasing Limiting Beliefs Through Reflection

Reading The Success Principles by Jack Canfield helped me identify and release many limiting beliefs I held about myself. It opened the door to trying new things, exploring what felt aligned, and giving myself permission to be authentic.

As these beliefs softened, a sense of optimism and excitement emerged. I felt more willing to do the hard things because they were connected to purpose, not fear. Intention allowed me to focus on the outcome while still enjoying the journey.

Had I stayed committed to rigid resolutions, I may never have followed my heart’s calling,  connecting with others through Divine and Angelic guidance. Fear once kept me silent, unsure whether it was safe to share and teach this gift with those who believe in the Divine.

Alignment Before Action

This is where alignment before action becomes essential. When you slow down, reflect, and listen inward, your actions begin to flow from trust rather than force. Alignment creates clarity. It brings purpose into focus and allows you to move forward with confidence and ease.

This practice is not about rushing into change. It is about honouring the journey and allowing your intentions to guide each step.

A Channelled Message from Archangel Jeremiel

“My children, life is all about taking risks and living in the moment. It’s created in your mind’s eye, and it is your responsibility to ACT upon it. You will be tested to see if this is what you want: lessons and a sense of FAITH in the journey. Always leading you for your highest good.”
— Archangel Jeremiel
