It's what I like about this exercise. There aren't 'right' answers - it's about playing with the words to find the formula that works for you. Some 'purists' might say that "I'm going to" is implying you'll do it later (a form of procrastination). Whereas for you, once you say it, you know it means it's going to happen, maybe you don't know how, but you know that it will... Joanna Hi Emma

Thanks for sharing the words that work for you. It’s what I like about this exercise. There aren’t ‘right’ answers – it’s about playing with the words to find the formula that works for you.

Some ‘purists’ might say that “I’m going to” is implying you’ll do it later (a form of procrastination). Whereas for you, once you say it, you know it means it’s going to happen, maybe you don’t know how, but you know that it will…

My favourite words to use in this context are 'I'm going to' (for me, it's so much stronger than I will). By shifting from obligation to desire and possibilities a whole new world opens up.
