The Road to Prosperity is Paved with Good Intendings

Most of us have heard of “The Secret” and the use of intending to actuate the desired response. To tell you the truth, I have been practicing this notion for several years with a modicum of success. It seemed every time our business entered a lull I would just send my intent out and the phone would ring with a potential client – ah, what a gift. That’s what I thought, until the end of 2008 when everything dried up including my good intending. Perhaps my gift was everything it was meant to be and now “The Universe” was directing me to take another path; or maybe it was just a coincidence and the phone would have rung anyway because the market was still strong. Whatever we want to  believe it is it takes over our psyche and gives us that sense of security that helps us sleep better at night.

But this article hits home. It is pure and real, beyond the mind of doubt and criticism. It has such a clear ring to its nature that it echoes into the higher self and sends back a message of YES.

I’ve included Robert’s comment as well, for it is so fitting.
