Live the Intention – Take Back Your Day
If you want to win in life, you have to stop letting your feelings lead and start choosing how you show up.
In this episode, Nick Carita—Certified Mental Performance Mastery Coach—shares a powerful mindset shift that helped him overcome discouragement and inconsistency by doing one thing: setting a daily intention.
When you stop reacting to how you feel and start acting with purpose, you build focus, confidence, and control. It’s not about perfection—it’s about consistency and intention.
Inside this episode, you’ll hear:
• Why living by emotion holds you back from your goals
• How setting a single intention helps rewire your focus
• Nick’s personal story of shifting from stuck to strong
• The one-word phrase that helped him show up—despite stress, fatigue, and pressure
• A practical challenge to guide how you show up daily
Q: What is a one-word intention and why does it work?
A: A one-word intention is a phrase you choose every morning to define how you’ll show up that day (e.g., “Go” or “Show Up Strong”). It gives your mind direction and helps you perform on purpose—even when your emotions say otherwise.
Micro-FAQ:
Q1: Why is intention important for mental performance?
A1: Intention gives your brain a target—it reduces emotional overwhelm and replaces reaction with focus.
Q2: How do I choose the right daily intention?
A2: Pick a word or phrase that reflects how you want to show up, not how you currently feel.
