The magic of intention
The Daily Guardian|September 07, 2024
Intention without action is simply daydreaming or wishful thinking … Every act we perform, consciously or not, has behind it an intention.
MEELU WADHWANI

Intentions are words and feelings, and like a compass they guide our actions/behaviour to our goals for the day. Intentions are the ‘WHATs’: What should I do/ eat/buy today? Motives are the ‘WHYs’ behind the intention. They drive and motivate us and give meaning and purpose to our choices. Having intentions is like going to a supermarket with a list so that we are less likely to be distracted, and can stay focussed and efficient. However, should we be distracted, then intentions work like a GPS that can reroute and guide us to our destination.

Studies in psychology show that intentions are powerful thoughts and feelings. Whatever clear intention we have, sooner or later we will verbalise it. Those words will reveal our attitude and impact our behaviour. For example: a simple intention – “I want to rest all day today” will reflect our attitude for the day and impact our behaviour.
