Living With Intent | Mallika Chopra | TEDxSanDiego

Intent is who we aspire to be, as individuals, as members of our family, as members of our community, and citizens of mother earth. In this talk Mallika Chopra explains that intents are much different from goals, as a goal is mind orientated and revolves around tasks, while intents come from our soul, and represent our deepest desires - they define who we want to be.


Mallika learned about the power of intention at a young age from her father, Deepak Chopra, who taught her to ask for love, hope, purpose, passion, inspiration on a daily basis.

She did a great job at adding humor into her demonstration! To me not only is it refreshing to hear that although she had felt spread too thin or just normal life stress and was able to make small steps to make a big change, the comedic bits made it feel more relatable and that I don’t have to a bhuddist living in a temple to become present and mindful. This is exactly what I needed needed to hear

[ToFinallyLive]

I have been practicing intentional living and it's truly life changing.

Watching this in 2020- in the middle of COVID! How powerful is what she just said about her vision for 2020... back in 2017! May we all be still and know our truth!

I loved your sense of humor through your presentation! Good job!!!!

[catelynmanansala]

sat down, closed my eyes, asked myself these questions, and felt awakened with inspiration that tears flooded.


I am a creative, a lover, an inspiration.
I want to inspire people to live a life with intention.
I can serve by creating artwork with the purpose to inspire vulnerability, so that people can shine from their authentic selves and practice compassion with the universe.


I'm speaking it into existence for 2020.

This was an Amazing lecture "in the now" stuck with me...Because Intent is a powerful and inspiring concept.even when we aren't listening to the mind listen to the world😊

[senseandability]

Fabulous! A wonderful demonstration of what living in the 'now' and with intent can be like. Something that isn't always easy to explain to our own clients who attend our Horse Sense equine assisted coaching programmes. Thank you for posting...

[randomcarrot]

After she said that I should not feel the need to answer those three questions and "experience" the answers instead, I had the same answer for each of the questions.

Who am I? PEACE.
What do I want? PEACE.
How can I serve? PEACE.
