Intention, As It Was Meant to Be

Intention,

As It Was

Meant to Be

This morning a client had great news. Her spa now has a new and famous tenant who is going to bring in additional business and generate free press. She was excited about this prosperous development and proclaimed that "It was meant to be!"

Do you think like this also? When good things come do you proclaim that it was meant to be?

When you don't get what you want, do you proclaim that it must be the way it was meant to be? Certainly, this is a popular viewpoint. However, it is not an empowering point of view. Consider an alternative way of thinking.

The new tenant had told Joan that she was considering her spa as a possible new home for her growing business three weeks earlier.

I asked Joan what we had covered in our coaching session that week. Immediately she had an ah-ha moment.

At the beginning of that session she had been worrying about the insufficient income her business was producing. We investigated and discovered that her fear and feeling of lack was producing more of the same, fear and lack.

Her ability to manifest her intention became clear as she remembered that our session had focused on adding $500 a week additional income to her existing business. By the end of our hour, she had become enthusiastic and had decided that this would happen even though she did not know how or where this increase in income would come from. She was focused on what she wanted, not what she feared.

It was just after this change in attitude and attention that her new tenant though of her spa as being the perfect new home for her growing business and prosperous clients.

Joan's father had once told an associate, "The harder I work the luckier I become." Hard work is only one of the ways for us to increase the chances that good things will come to us. We all know hard workers who are beset by bad luck and tough breaks. Joan's good fortune came as a result of a decision to focus on having what she wanted, no extra effort was involved.

When we proclaim that anything is "as it was meant to be," we give away our power. Every time we claim responsibility for events and circumstances, good and bad, we gain power. Responsibility is the ability to respond, to make changes, to redirect the circumstances.

We are not talking about blame or fault but the ability to respond, responsibility is a wonderful and powerful thing. When we take responsibility we can focus on and create what we want.

Some people call this process cosmic ordering, quantum mind power or the Law of Attraction. Some explain it with quantum physics, metaphysics or spiritual philosophy and psychology.

Whatever the paradigm, the truth is the same;

like attracts like, and we bring about what we think about.

Focus on your intention.

Imagine the Possibilities!
