In Search of Goal Setting Words for 2018 "The process of setting intentions and joyfully reflecting on them is how, over time, we transform extrinsic into intrinsic motivations, and thereby sustain the energy and purpose to live true to our best aspirations."  Thupten Jinpa, Two Exercises for Turning Intention into Motivation .
