The Power of Intention

Intention is more than just having a plan or an idea on what you set out to do. There is power in it especially when you repeatedly envisioned your objective in your mind and are determined to see it through.

Some people say things or think of doing something but never taking any action. It is more of a wishful thinking, hoping or day dreaming.

When you set out a real or strong personal declaration you are giving instruction to your brain and telling your subconscious the object that you are setting out to achieve or accomplish. Once you decide on a purpose, you focus your mind power and attract the resources to your aid.

Regardless of whether you have good or cruel objective, once you commit yourself, you will act upon it.

Say "I will", "I choose" or "I allow" instead of "I want" to yourself to confirm your desire. Using the right words affect your beliefs. What you say to yourself will determine your action. State it clearly and specifically so that your mind will understand what you are asking for or desiring to achieve.

Telling yourself that you choose, plan, allow or will do something carries different messages to your brain. When you say you will, you are affirming to yourself that you are going to take action.

Look for the reason to do what you set out. It is the best way to produce the results that you are aiming to achieve. It creates the behaviors, attitudes and motivation to push you forward.

Give meanings to your purpose by associating it with pictures, sounds and sensations. When things mean something to you, it affects your emotions and your frame of mind and encourages you to take action.

For your purpose to materialize and motivate you, it should align with your personal values. When your values are not aligned with your purpose, you won't take the necessary action and make changes.
