For years, cultures have been fascinated with the power of the mind, dreams and the individual thought process. Businesses thrive on positive attitudes and encouraging words. What we think about and focus on manifests in our lives, so states the Laws of Attraction. An intention is defined as "an act or instance of determining mentally upon some action or result". What intentions do you hold dear in your heart?

As wisely stated by nature artist and illustrator, Kate Zamarchi: 

"One thing that does work is to set 'intentions' rather than 'expectations'. Intention is different than expectation in that we are focused on a direction or element rather than an exact outcome. A true intention is an inspiration that comes from your spirit, your heart - a natural desire to share life with all that lives. An intention will raise your enthusiasm for life and free you from fear of not measuring up. Ask yourself  "What is my aim?"... this sets direction not exact results (as an expectation would). This is not about setting goals or to do lists and working our butt off the achieve them. This is about being quiet and listening to our inner voice and aligning ourselves with that. It's about planting seeds, nurturing them and enjoying the beauty / love that comes from it".

Words from one's heart and mind can be fashionably displayed to reflect your focus. Whether for love, strength, family or to simply inspire, they can empower you with the voice in a new expression.

Trust you will find the right words for yourself...  

All are good intentions... xoxo-Sonya
