We seldom stop to think about our base level intentions in our day to day actions. Most of the time we are floating on the surface of life unaware of the depths below us, doing what we should do based on what society dictates is appropriate. However, a powerful intention for a purposeful life on every level is stored deep within each of us. We usually suppress and/or ignore its leadings because they aren’t necessarily in sync with what we think we should be feeling or doing.

We have been programmed since early childhood to think and act in certain ways. We go along with this program to avoid hassles, confrontations and conflict. We are unaware of the cost we are paying for this artificial comfort zone. We don’t realize that every emotion is stored in our body. Our subconscious mind records and stores every thought and emotion forever. If that thought and/or emotion is in harmony with our core intention it enhances our mood, our health and our environment.

However, if it is out of alignment, or just downright toxic, it tears down our cell structures, dampens our mood and contaminates our environment. Since we don’t observe this destruction at the moment it is occurring, we don’t connect the dots. But then a few days later, we get sick, have an accident, or fight with a loved one, etc. What we think are our good intentions are backfiring. We don’t realize we aren’t acting from our true intentions.

No one ever taught us that our very first priority in life was to know ourselves and set our intentions to live in integrity to that inner wisdom. We are all unique, magnificent creations with equally unique gifts to give the world, but most of us die with our song still in us. Our educational systems are geared to conformity with a single standard for all. We weren’t encouraged to be rugged individualists growing up. After all, they are much harder to manage and control.

But now as more and more information is being discovered as to how the mind and body work, and how we can access our subconscious mind; we have some tools to rewrite our powerless conformity programs and come into alignment with our true intention for our life. Knowledge is power. Knowing you are not your programs is the first step to breaking free of them. We each need to know our unique purpose for being here. Without a vision the people perish, Proverbs states. We can see ourselves and others perishing from lack of purposeful intention.

Intention clears our vision. It enables us to see what action to take that will be in alignment with our purpose in life. When confronted with a conflict, we can ask ourselves what our core intention for the situation is. Then we can act in a way that will lead to a resolution that is in harmony with that intention.

For example, if two friends have a fight, but the core intention of each one is to retain and nurture the relationship, then they will be able to find an agreeable resolution. However, if one doesn’t intend in their heart to keep the relationship; then no amount of negotiations, capitulations or apologies will work. Intention is the glue that keeps us together.

Intention is based on truth because it resides in the heart. Our mind may convince us we intend one thing, but we find ourselves doing another. We must be willing to examine our heart for the truth about ourselves in order to know ourselves. It is the intention of our heart to love ourselves because that is the only way we can ever love another. It is the intention our heart to do what is the right thing in every situation based on the Law of Love.

Every time we catch ourselves in unloving, disrespectful thoughts about ourselves or another, we know instantly we are out of alignment with our core intention to live from our heart with love. In that moment we can choose a different thought and be true to ourselves. Our unique purpose and accompanying gifts will emerge and blossom as we clear out and delete the corrupting programming. Then we can know first-hand the power of intention.
