Whether it's your thinking that you want to transform, a habit that you want to get rid of, a new skill that you want to improve, or simply a dream you want to see fulfilled, positive - lasting - change doesn't just happen. We have to be intentional about it. If we want to see our lives changed in a meaningful way, we must be very determined about it. Being intentional about something means you've made up your mind and you've decided to get things done. That's the first step towards achieving true and radical transformation in your life. — Robert Pop
