Intentions - Specific or Going With The Flow

Lets assume you have arrived at the state of mind where you know you create your reality. This awesome mind-set is life changing to say the least. And now comes the first baby step - "Intending" your first "conscious" manifestation - not in any way by default - one in which you are fully aware that your focused, passionate thought WILL come into your physical reality.

There are two ways you can proceed: You can draw a detailed picture of your intention in both your mind and in the physical through such means as a "treasure map" and "affirmations" - transforming these into mental pictures on which you focus through visualization. Or you can hand the intention completely over to the universe.

Using only "present tense" terminology, the first method could look like this:

"I now possess $1,000,000 in net worth from the success of my work-at-home business."

Now, here is how the "Hand it Over" approach might look:

"I Am Abundant - I Am Abundance. I Am financially free. I live a life of complete prosperity. I give thanks to the universe (God, if that works for you) that it is so."

See the difference?

Both concepts work, and we should mention, that since gratitude is a KEY component of manifestation, the first method should also include giving thanks. The reason we omitted it is because it does not flow through our inner dialogue as easily as in the second method. The reason is due to the fact that the "Hand it Over" method engenders a pre-existent communication with the Source of manifestation - the Universal Subjective Mind - The Unified Field - God.

You will also notice that the second method did not mention anything about the "How" of the manifestation process. This suggests a deeper faith in the Source of manifestation. It suggests that the infinite "ways and means" available to the Source needs no input from us...in fact it is essental, for maximum results, that we do not interfere with the "How" of our intention.

This can be very uncomfortable for most people who are locked into the idea that "How" is up to us. Nevertheless, it is a major step forward when we have developed and utilize this faith in the universe.

More on the "What" and the "How" of our intentions in a future post.
