Intention<br />

by wah!<br />

he art of thought technology and the practice<br />

of creating your reality through intentions and<br />

prayer is an exciting new world. We have Louise<br />

Hay, Abraham-Hicks, Dr. Michael Beckwith,<br />

TMarianne Williamson and many others to thank for this<br />

brilliant technology.<br />

You reap what you sow. As you think, so shall you<br />

become. Americans are waking up to the realization of<br />

their own inner power.<br />

To see your prayers manifest is something quite<br />

miraculous. To watch your day flow according to your<br />

morning intentions is an aha moment – yes, your thoughts<br />

really do attract other thoughts just like it.<br />

More of the same, like attracts like, birds of a feather<br />

flock together, and qualities of thought attract more<br />

thoughts just like it. Things come in groups of threes,<br />

some people say. That’s true, and they also come in<br />

fours, fives and sixes. It’s an endless stream in a certain<br />

direction, and you guide the direction it flows.<br />

If you are musically inclined like<br />

I am, you may find certain songs<br />

coming up on the radio or notice<br />

a lyric or song while shopping in<br />

a store. You may even find yourself<br />

singing along to an imaginary<br />

soundtrack in your head.<br />

Ma r c h • Ap r i l <strong>2013</strong><br />

A bad day gets worse because you continue affirming<br />

I got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning. A<br />

good day gets better because you feel I’m sitting on top<br />

of the world. Do you know the song from Mary Poppins:<br />

Just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down…<br />

in the most delightful way? Sing it out loud; I guarantee<br />

a mood change.<br />

Creating intention is a process of allowing yourself to<br />

consciously dream. What would my ideal business client<br />

look like? What would my perfect lover do?<br />

My friends do vision boards on a regular basis, creating<br />

physical manifestations of their dreams by making<br />

collages of pictures and text cut from magazine clippings.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y really work.<br />

Offering yourself encouragement and support with<br />

affirmations like, It’s all unfolding perfectly and I’m finding<br />

exactly what I need to take the next step on my path<br />

is the icing on the cake – one part conscious dreaming,<br />

two parts encouragement and enthusiasm.<br />

When you start attracting thoughts that fit your highest<br />

hopes and dreams, it feels good. You attract more and<br />

more like-minded energy. If you are musically inclined<br />

like I am, you may find certain songs coming up on the<br />

radio or notice a lyric or song while shopping in a store.<br />

You may even find yourself singing along to an imaginary<br />

soundtrack in your head.<br />

Your subconscious finds examples of what you are<br />

thinking and believing to be true and reflects them back<br />

to you.<br />

Let it be. Let it be. Let it be, yeah, let it be. Speaking<br />

words of wisdom, let it be…<br />

Our songwriters sing about our experiences, bringing<br />

us lyrics to describe this or that emotion or realization.<br />

When the message comes in a song, it is more likely to be<br />

repeated over and over in your head. A beautiful melody<br />

allows a message to penetrate your consciousness and<br />

repeat. When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother<br />

Mary comes to me... Speaking words of wisdom, let it<br />

be… <strong>The</strong> song gets “stuck” in your head and you repeat<br />

the melody and lyrics, the message stays with you.<br />
