I. Every morning you have two choices: continue to sleep with your dreams or wake up and chase them.
II. \”Intention is one of the most powerful forces there is. What you mean when you do a thing will always determine the outcome. The law creates the world.\” — Brenna Yovanoff
III. \”Intention is not something you do, but rather a force that exists in the universe as an invisible field of energy- a power that can carry us. It\’s the difference between motivation and inspiration. Motivation is when you get hold of an idea and don\’t let go of it until you make it a reality. Inspiration is the reverse- when an idea gets hold of you and you feel compelled to let that impulse or energy carry you along. You get to a point where you realize that you\’re no longer in charge, that there\’s a driving force inside you that can\’t be stopped. Look at the great athletes, musicians, artists, and writers. They all tap into a source.\” — Wayne Dyer
IV. \”In the universe there is an immeasurable, indescribable force which shamans call intent and absolutely everything that exists in the entire cosmos is attached to intent by a connecting link\” — Carlos Castaneda
V. \”Every journey begins with the first step of articulating the intention, and then becoming the intention.\” — Bryant McGill
VI. \”A gift consists not in what is done or given, but in the intention of the giver or doer.\” — Seneca
VII. \”It is not good enough for things to be planned – they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation.\” — Walt Kelly
VIII. \”You\’ve got to know what you want. This is central to acting on your intentions. When you know what you want, you realize that all there is left then is time management. You\’ll manage your time to achieve your goals because you clearly know what you\’re trying to achieve in your life.\” — Patch Adams
IX. \”The more aware of your intentions and your experiences you become, the more you will be able to connect the two, and the more you will be able to create the experiences of your life consciously. This is the development of mastery. It is the creation of authentic power.\” — Gary Zukav
X. \”Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.\” — William A. Foster
XI. \”Energy is directed by intention into action. If the action is not happening, if you\’re finding excuses to not do whatever you set out to do, revisit your intention. Perhaps you were not being honest with yourself. Where is your energy flowing instead? That is where your intention sits.\” — Akiroq Brost
XII. “Guard your time fiercely. Be generous with it, but be intentional about it.” — David duChemin
XIII. \”Gratitude in advance is the most powerful creative force in the Universe.\” — Neale Donald Walsh
XIV. “As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.” — Wilfred Arlan Peterson, The Art of Living, Day by Day
XV. \”Intention is more than wishful thinking—it’s willful direction. It is a philosophy of the heart put into practice, a consistency of conscious patterns of thought, energy, and action. Through intention, we see more and create with more clarity, passion, and authenticity. Our attention then becomes a spotlight for every shred of supporting evidence that we’re on the right path.\” — Jennifer Williamson
XVI. \”I learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.\” — Henry David Thoreau
