What It Means To Live Intentionally And How To Start Your Intentional Life
The idea of living intentionally is something I know you’ve seen on social media.
But, what does it mean to live intentionally?
I mean, aren’t we all living intentionally by simply living?
Well, not exactly.

What Is Intentional Living?
To live intentionally means that you lead a conscious lifestyle that aligns with your values, beliefs, and goals.
In other words, you have a vision for your life and are living according to that vision.
You have goals, beliefs, and values that all align perfectly with the actions of your day-to-day life.

Instead of simply going through the motions, you spend your days doing things that align with your morals, values, and beliefs and push you forward towards your goals.
These could be choices about:
- what to eat
- how to dress
- who you spend time with
- when & how you exercise
- what you spend your money on
When you live intentionally, your actions consistently align with your values, you understand why you are doing something, and you know how your actions will positively impact your life.
It is a liberating feeling to live with intention instead of simply being.
We only have one chance at this life on earth and to live with intention means that you consciously do your best to acknowledge that concept every single day.
Why Should You Start Living Intentionally
You should start living intentionally because you value yourself, your worth, and your time on this planet.
More simply, you should start living intentionally to change the things about your life that you are unhappy with.
For example, do you complain about this or that but find that nothing ever changes? This is because you aren’t living your life on purpose.
Do you want to be
- healthier?
- more patient?
- financially free?
- more worldly?
You need to take action and spend your time intentionally every day to change things and make a positive impact on your life.

Living with intention opens your eyes to the true value of life is – which is to live instead of to be. You’ll see that living is more than scrolling through social media and it is more than the possessions you own.
And, living life on purpose gives you fulfillment and peace of mind knowing that you actively work towards your best life.
How To Start Living Intentionally To Improve Your Life
The good news is, anybody can start to live more intentionally and it doesn’t have to be hard or financially burdening.
To start living intentionally to improve your life, consider these three things:
- What are your overall values, morals, and beliefs?
- What is important to you?
- What are your goals?
Essentially, you’re going to figure out what you want to change about your life and how to do so while staying true to your values, goals, and beliefs.
Then, you can create a plan to live intentionally every single day.
For example, let’s say that you want to be healthier.

So, you begin paying more attention to the food on your plate and start experimenting with different diets. Ultimately you discover that eating a plant-based diet is best for you because it positively impacts your health and aligns with your values of compassion.
Now, every day you make a conscious decision to fill your plate with plants and grains to lead a healthier, more compassionate, super intentional lifestyle.
Remember, intentional living is all about aligning your values, beliefs, and goals with purposeful action!
