The Power of Intention
by Jim Donovan
The power of intention is an important ally in learning to direct your energy. Intention means consciously deciding to bring about a specific circumstance. For example, you can hold an intention of creating a peaceful environment around you. In the process of creating this environment, you first have the thought, then as you hold the thought, you take action. Thought without action only moves energy in small ways. Thought coupled with action allows you to manifest. The thought of the desired circumstance followed by action, is intention- which ultimately progresses towards manifestation.
As important as it is to understand your core beliefs, it's equally important to understand your intentions behind why you choose to act in a particular way. It's kind of like seeing the flower but also knowing where the root is and what causes it to grow.

This is so great Jim! Thanks. I've also found that adding feeling to a thought is helpful as well.
