"Intentionality is the opposite of reaction. In the end, we have greater control of our actions than we do our outcomes. Ultimately, our results are created by our actions. When you are intentional with your time, you know which activities to engage with and which ones to pass on. You are aware when you are procrastinating or engaged in low-level activity to avoid a high-payoff activity that is uncomfortable.

When you are intentional, you are much more conscious of the actions you engage. You willingly employ a discipline and rigor to how you organize and structure your day and week. Your activity is driven by your goals and plan. In the end, you work your plan instead of the day working you.

Intentionality is your secret weapon in the war on mediocrity."
