The Awesome Power of Intention
Success doesn't come to you... you go to it. - Marva Collins
Setting an intention is something we all have done in the past and naturally have the ability to do. However, many of us have not learned how to harness the awesome power behind setting an intention yet.
If you look at the typical behavior of your mind, you'll see it is constantly creating intentions. Some are weak while others are more solid and trustworthy. It's easy to understand why your wimpy intentions don't always manifest results, yet why wouldn't all of your strong intentions? What is the secret to making your solid intentions manifest results faster and easier?
The answer lies in the length of time you can actually hold on to the FEELING of your desired outcome. Here is a great manifesting secret to explore:
The number of seconds you can hold on to a specific desired outcome with a feeling of genuine excitement and joy is indirectly proportional to the amount of time it takes to manifest in your world.
This means that imagining your desired outcome has happened for 60 seconds will manifest that outcome twice as fast for you as if you held it for 30 seconds. So how long can you hold on to ONE thought? Your ability to hold an intention for a longer period of time depends on how much you can quiet your mind.
This quietness is based on several things, but mainly it is created from your personal connection with the Universal Source. The secret to increasing this connection is rooted in your ability to trust the Universe, let go of attachment to specific outcomes, and relax while enjoying the magical manifesting process!
If you do nothing else this year...evolve! - Lily Tomlin
As you learn how to consistently trust in the Universe and yourself, you will also have more of a KNOWING and FEELING that your desired outcome is already on its way. The Universe will give you signs along the path to guide you through apparent problems, personal issues and distractions that may stop you.
It is good to know that these "distractions" are a natural part of the manifesting process. Without them, you wouldn't get the inspiration, motivation, or spark of creativity to come up with any revolutionary new ideas about how to evolve as a spiritual being in this world.
These problems and distractions help you to WAKE UP and make your life more alive and juicy! They create a greater awareness inside of you, and actually raise your consciousness. When the moment comes that you feel free from this distracting problem, you experience a great alignment with the Universe again, and can FEEL how intimately and divinely connected you are with everything.
If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living. Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. - Gail Sheehy
Most people just wish their lives would change. They send out wishy-washy energy with their words, thoughts and feelings, and thus get weak results in return. Often people will unconsciously choose to have weak intentions because it's a great excuse for not succeeding, and is easier than continuing to work harder to reach their goal.
On the other hand, sometimes the habit of working too hard can be a hindrance, especially if we forget to make time to practice receiving the FEELINGS we are really desiring. So set some time aside tomorrow morning to relax into those feelings you most desire. Whether it is pure joy, abundance, or being loved, admired or appreciated, make time to imagine whatever will give you those feelings inside.
Manifesting happens easily and effortlessly when you open yourself to your feelings, are clear about what you want, and can trust in your personal connection with the Universe. When you live your life from this space everyday, you don't get upset if your desires don't manifest at the expected time. Instead, you find yourself committed to being more passionate about FEELING what you really want to experience inside.
With practice, you will see the Universe magically responds to every intention you put out. In fact, once you start on this manifesting path, it only becomes easier and more fun to create anything you desire.
There are basically two movements of consciousness: love and fear. Love is allowing what is, and fear is resisting it. - Nirmala
