Intention doesn’t mean anything without a plan to back it up. We can set our intentions all we want but if we don’t take the time to plan and ensure those intentions become reality it’s never going to happen. Look at your life and find out what it is you’re telling yourself that’s holding you back from starting the thing you want – it’s probably not true.
