‘Intention has unlimited organizing capacity’–  VR Ferose. India’s Top 40 under 40. (ferosevr.com)

Everything starts with intention. Intention is knowing what you want and wanting it enough. When you set your intentions, the universe conspires to make it happen. The power of intention goes by many names: The Secret, Positive psychology, Miracles of faith…

Not everything we intend to happen, happens. There are two major issues with setting successful intentions.

  1. Not Knowing what you really want
  2. Stepping in the ways of the universe.

Let us explore this for a minute:

  1. Most people do not know what they want. This is a counter intuitive thought considering that we fill our life with ‘I want…’ statements. The ‘want’ I am bringing to the table is deeper. It stems from the Who and the Why of your being. Who are you? Why do you do what you do? Whether you know it or not, you are living a life of choices. When you can answer the Who and the Why’s of your life, you will be able to answer the ‘I want…’ statement in a way that is authentic to you. This may sound philosophical, but I strongly believe that ‘knowing’ is the first step to receiving. Otherwise, you stand the risk of rejecting the very gifts you sought in the first place.
  2. The universe works in mysterious ways. When we set an intention, we set in motion a complex ripple of events. And like a wild array of dominoes, one event has to follow another, sometimes in sequence, to make your intention a reality. But we are often impatient. Early in the waiting we step up efforts that run counter to what we really wanted. In essence, we are pressing the re-set button, while the universe is still uploading, over and over again. Not that the universe will become fatigued, but very likely you will.  Again, knowing what you really want helps you stay the course of your intentions.

So it is as simple as that- know and accept. know what you want and accept that it will happen in time.

The world (starting with you), is your to change.

With Gratitude!
