Why are intentions important?

Intentions is the beginning of the process of getting a clear picture of what you want to do, feeling that it is possible, taking action, then detaching from the outcome. It can be something you do or an energy youre part of.

Intentions also have to be in line with your values and beliefs. When intentions are in line with your values and beliefs they flow in an almost magical way.

When youve set meaningful intentions its easy to move from that place of being tossed around on a sea of thoughts aimlessly to a position of confident knowing. Its so effective!
Powerful intention statements are shaped from knowing whats important to you.

@BeyondTheInvisible I find intentions difficult to convey. Often the best of intentions produce the opposite reactions. I have to know the person well to figure out what works okay. Sometimes I have to just say what I know the person will accept.

Hello Soul, thanks for sharing your reflections about that topic. laugh

Exchanging them may be occasion to add more reflections to own ones, an occasion to learn something too!

I find intentions difficult to convey ... yes, it is not always easy

Often the best of intentions produce the opposite reactions .... that sure is not easy to face when it happens

I have to know the person well to figure out what works okay.... I think that shows respect for the interaction, like having the focus in the other too, without taking for granted that a good intention should have just a positive outcome

Sometimes I have to just say what I know the person will accept .... also set int the concept of respecting the other

Intentions- powerful thoughts moving in a positive direction.

Am experiencing an unexpected shift in response to "intentions" and thoughts during this summer.

It shouldn't surprise me because whenever I am on the right path this happens.

I am grateful and accepting just the same.
