Default vs Design

I have written about intentionality recently, including getting past autopilot (cue Airplane) and also living life in a mindful manner. How many times do we go about decision-making vs default versus design? Ask yourself - are you regularly in a mode of automation and autopiloting your activities versus specifically and intentionally designing your actions your days, and so forth. Take even an average day — are you designing your day or going through the motions on cruise control? Take one step. Journal in the morning or map out each day, on the hour, the night before. Bonus/even better: do both.
