Let’s explore the word “intention”. When you set your intentions, you put yourself “in-tension” in terms of setting yourself up to actualize and manifest the visions which you have set your sights upon, often in the form of taking action on the fronts of what is most exciting for your soul to explore/manifest/create. This state of tension is actually a motivating factor pushing you in the direction of achieving your goals, and is a totally healthy condition to experience, although at first it may not appear to be that way.
We often hear that comfort is the bane of the growth process, and when we free ourselves up to establish new relationships with the discomforts we may feel at the sense of disconnect between the state of the world “out there” and the world that we desire to see reflected back to us, we understand that this uncomfortability that we may experience is in reality quite necessary for us to feel in order to catalyze our development and to encourage us to act upon our dreams. When we integrate this notion, we view this discomfort in new light and understand it to be a vital component to our continual evolution, and as it motivates us to keep moving forward toward accomplishment of our goals, we experience the release of tension and the satisfaction that comes along with their fulfillment.
