An introduction to intentionality

Five short pieces on intentionality: where the idea came from, and what it looks like applied to a few specific parts of life. They're meant to be read in order, roughly one a day, though nothing stops you reading them in one sitting.

Day 1

The origins of intentionality

Where I first ran into the idea, by way of stoicism and a line from Seneca.

Day 2

Intentionality and lifestyle/habit change

What it looks like applied to the things most people say they want to change.

Day 3

Intentionality and social media

How much time it actually takes, and what using it deliberately looks like.

Day 4

Intentionality and your career

The difference between being productive and being intentional.

Day 5

Intentionality and goal setting

What happens when you keep at it: daily intentions pointed at a life you chose.
