The Power of Intention

by Wayne Dyer

I urge you to replicate their inner world, and rejoice in the infinite power of intention. Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at will change.

People who live in a state of unity with the Source of all life (connectors) don’t look any different from ordinary folks. But when you talk to them, you realize how distinctive they are because they are connected to the power of intention.

These people speak from an inner conviction that communicates their profound and simple knowing that the universal Source supplies everything. They don’t say, With my luck, things won’t work out but rather I intend to create this, and I know it will work out. No matter how you might try to dissuade them, they seem blissfully blind to reality-check repercussions. They simply say, I refuse to think about what can’t happen. Since I’ll attract exactly what I think about, I’ll only think about what I know will happen.

They don’t relate to failure or impossibility. They trust in an all-providing, invisible force. It’s as if they have a natural aura that prevents anything from getting through that might weaken their connection to the creative energy of the Source. They believe, The Source of all can only respond with what it is—an infinite supply. It can’t relate to scarcity, or things not working out, because it’s none of these things.

Connectors know that this is a universe of energy and attraction, and that the reason so many people live lives of fear and scarcity is because they rely on their ego to fulfill their desires. It’s simple, they’ll tell you: keep your thoughts on what you intend to create. Match your intentions perfectly with the all-providing Source, and then watch for clues that what you’re summoning is arriving in your life. Start perceiving seemingly insignificant events as being orchestrated in perfect harmony. Believe in synchronicity and don’t be surprised when the perfect person for a situation appears, or when someone you’ve been thinking about calls out of the blue, or when a book arrives unexpectedly in the mail, giving you the information you need, or when money mysteriously shows up.

A State of Gratitude

Connectors are always in a state of appreciation and gratitude. They feel thankful for everything—even things that might seem to be obstacles. They see an illness as a blessing. They know that an opportunity exists in the setback—and that is what they look for in everything that shows up in their life. Through their thanks, they honor all possibilities, rather than asking their Source for something, because that seems to give power to what’s missing. They commune with the Source in a state of reverent gratitude for all that’s present in their lives, knowing that this empowers their intention to manifest precisely what they need. They aren’t complainers and fault-finders.

The same connection that they experience with nature they feel toward all beings, including those who lived before and those who have yet to arrive. They make no distinctions such as them or those people. It’s all we. They’re hurt by pain inflicted on others. They don’t have enemies, since they know that we all emanate from the same divine Source. They enjoy differences in appearance and customs rather than disliking, criticizing, or feeling threatened by them. Their connection to others is of a spiritual nature, but they don’t separate themselves spiritually from anyone regardless of where they might live or how different their appearances or customs may be.

Connectors attract the cooperation and assistance of others in fulfilling their intentions. The entire system of life is available to them because they’re connected to this life-giving energy Source and all of its creations. They’re not surprised when coincidence or synchronicity brings them the fruits of their intentions. They know that seemingly miraculous happenings are brought into their life because they are already connected to them. They’ll tell you, Stay tuned to the Source of all life, and all of the powers of the field of intention will cooperate with you to bring into your life what you desire.

Connectors don’t brag about their good fortune. They are in a perpetual state of gratitude and humility. They stay blissfully in tune with the universe, rather than challenging or finding fault with it. They know that we’re part of a dynamic energy system. Energy that moves faster dissolves and nullifies slower-moving energy. They choose to be in harmony with the invisible spiritual energy and vibrations.

Exude Energy

Connectors uplift people who live with lower energy. Their peace and serenity cause others to feel calm and assured. They’re not interested in winning arguments or accumulating allies. They’re convincing through the energy they exude. People feel loved by them, because they’re merged with the Source of all life, which is love.

Connectors choose to feel good, regardless of what’s going on around them or how others judge them. They know that feeling bad is a choice, and that it isn’t useful for correcting unpleasant situations. So, when they feel bad, they soon bring their thoughts into harmony with their desire to feel good. If the economy takes a nosedive, they still choose to feel good. If crime rates go up or hurricanes rage, they still choose to feel good. They think that the spirit works in peace, love, harmony, kindness, and abundance.

Connectors don’t allow their well-being to be contingent on anything external—not the weather, wars, politics, economy, or anyone else’s decision to be low energy. They work with the field of intention, emulating the creative Source of all.

Connectors are in touch with their infinite nature. Death is not something that they fear. They see death as taking off a garment or moving from one room into another—merely a transition. They point to the invisible energy that intends everything into existence and see this as their true self. Because connectors always feel aligned to everyone and everything, they don’t experience the feeling of being separate from anyone else or from what they’d like to attract into their lives. Their connection is never doubted. They rely on this inner, invisible spiritual energy and live in harmony with Spirit—and this awareness is key to their seeing the power of intention at work daily.

They see what they intend to manifest into their lives as if it already has materialized—and for them, because it’s so real in their thoughts, it’s their reality. They are exceptional at realizing the fruits of their intentions.

Connectors are exceptionally generous. What they want for themselves is dwarfed only by wanting it even more for other people. They take great pleasure in giving. Others may wonder how they ever accumulate anything for themselves, yet their lives are filled with abundance, and they seem to lack nothing that they desire. The secret to the power of intention is in thinking and acting the same as the all-providing Source from which all originates. It’s always providing, and I choose to be a provider, too. The more I give of myself of all that flows to me, the more I see flowing back to me.

Connectors are inspired people who live more in spirit than in form. They’re inspired and inspiring, as opposed to informed. They have a strong sense of their own destiny. They know why they’re here, and they’re all about living this purpose and choosing to avoid being distracted by the demands of the ego. They have great reverence for the world of Spirit, and by communing with this Source, they stay inspired.

Their high energy brings love to the presence of hatred and converts that hatred to love. They bring a peaceful countenance to the presence of chaos and disharmony, and convert the lower energies to the higher energy of peace. When you’re around them, you feel energized, cleansed, healthier, and inspired. They aren’t immobilized by the thoughts or actions of others. They have the Spirit within them as an all-powerful force for good.

I urge you to replicate their inner world, and rejoice in the infinite power of intention. Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at will change.  PE
