I enjoyed your inspirational video about intentions and, I’m somewhere in the middle of this process myself. While I am trying to pursue my passion for art, reality reminds me that I need to work full time, receive healthcare benefits and put my daughter through college in the upcoming year. It may just be a matter of confidence in my abilities to pursue my dreams.

Marcia – I seem to be stuck and I’m not sure why. Can you give me some pointers as to how to get out of the doldrums that I’m in right now. I think I know why but not real sure what to do about it. It has to do with my son and daughter who are both incarcerated due to drug addictions. I just need a push. I sure would appreciate it.
Thanks

Marcia,

This came at exactly the right time for me! (as do most things when you’re open to receiving them! ).

I’ve been doing a lot of evaluating of my business lately- feeling like I’ve created a ‘job’ for myself…(never intended to do that) and realized I’ve never given myself the time to really step back and write out my intentions!

I get very caught up in the day to day- what I have to do, etc….. feeling like that’s something I shouldn’t take the time to do.
It’s really the FIRST thing I should do and deserve to do.
Thanks for the reminder.
All the best,
Kim

Your message is very timely! I really needed to hear it. Synchronicities abound! My dream is financial independence through passive income, to get out of debt, travel and live life to the fullest. I have seen my dreams become manifest time and time again. I’ve set my intention. I’ve been moving my feet. And, I’ve been seeing it happen. So, here I am, bags packed and ready to go, standing on the precipice of something great that is happening, even though I can’t quite see it yet.

In the past I thought I wasn’t a “dreamer”. Now I’ve come to see that I have been a dreamer but that its been in the shape of fearful outcomes, worse case scenarios, what might happen if….

So I can honestly now call myself a dreamer. But instead of just negative dreams, I now invoke that which I would love to see happen. And we shall see what happens here.

I also realize now that “I” never do anything alone, myself. I am always working with creation itself, the energies that make trees make me. So I appeal to the Universe, telling it what I see, what I intend, and live from here.

Stay tuned. I believe that I will see all that I truly want come true. I agree with Marcia. We need to really believe it’s possible. Now for the actions…

Hi Marcia! Thanks for the video!

My story of a setback followed by something better is actually still a work in progress. In 2004, I lost the love of my life to a heart attack on our living room floor. I disintegrated into a pool of grief and depression and soon lost everything. I became homeless and found myself in a homeless shelter for women. They had a medical clinic attached to it and I was soon devastated to be told that I might have uterine cancer and they would need to do tests. I had reached bottom and was crying inconsolably on the couch in the living room area. Then, a wonderful person walked into the room who held me and told me that I may be homeless but I wasn’t hopeless. Through the next few months, she worked with me, helped me and I worked hard to do all I could to justify her faith in me. I found that I qualified for a disability subsidized housing program which gave me a new apartment, I met my current husband and now have been married for almost 3 years, I am active in volunteer work as my disabilities permit and I worked hard on getting the health care reform passed which has now meant that I will get into the “high risk pool” and I will finally get the health care that I need and within two years I will be able to overcome the problems that have physically held me back. I am taking free college classes online with Academic Earth.org and MIT OpenCourseware and I’m also pursuing other avenues of self-help education. I feel so blessed to be where I am now and I even have a wonderful dog, a Golden Retriever, named Lucky Lady because I feel so lucky to have her! The other great news was that the tests came back and it turned out that I had benign fibroids instead of cancer! I feel so blessed!

Dreams do come true, sometimes they take a little while, but they do happen. My next wish is to become a public speaker and share more of my story and more about the needs of others less fortunate and how we can all help each other and lift each other up and make life a wonderful shared experience!

Thanks for all that you do to lift people up! Thanks for being you!

It’s so important to stay on track with Intention. Taking it back to basics is so important. Basics is Intention.

Thank you for your inspiring words.

In October 2006 I decided clearly that no matter what, I would create the conditions necessary for my business to explode (there was no previous evidence to that, after struggling for 1.5 years with it!). I mean, I was at the end of my rope emotionally, financially, and spiritually – something had to give. By deliberate choice and with faith, I shifted how I looked at my business, worked it, talked about it, and then went into deep service to other people, and aligned my vision in a whole new way. My faith was at 100% for the first time, not to mention my belief in myself and the program, and I trusted that it was all going to work. I catapulted my business and have made so many new friends – it was a quantum leap! It works! I am so grateful that I was willing to not quit at the apex of despair, and allow myself the shift that I needed to take, to take it to the next level into a way that personally worked for me (and others!).

Marsha, Thank you for your gift of enthusiasm! I have had a dream of helping others find inner peace through a product that I produced many years ago. One struggle after another has distracted me from my goal and my highest potential to serve others. I keep awaiting a celestial “break” to find the time and the resources to finish this product. I do believe that the power of intention, attraction and dreaming big can overcome this negative power of procrastination. Thank you for your “shot in the arm”.

Marcia,
I can relate to you in this video on many levels:Having put my heart, soul,time and finances into a few businesses that went no where,I know exactly how one feels when nothing goes the way it is expected to go.
But when you believe in what you are doing,as I do, you must keep at it and use the help(like what you provide)of those who have achieved what you desire.
In June of 2007, I came to my senses and realized that my passion has always been writing.As a result, I wrote and subsequently published my first book.
I have since returned to writing articles,poetry,and I have a blog on line as well.
Finally, on March 25th,2010,I got paid for a speaking engagement;it was the first time I have recieved money for doing what I love-writing and speaking on the things I write.
The amount was extremely small when compared to what I know I am worth,but it was a start,and I am grateful for it.
I want to thank you for the help you provide.
I have read many of your E-books,and I have followed what you suggested.
I thank you for the generous heart and spirit you possess and your sincere desire to help others succeed.
Thank you~
Barbara J.

Thanks Marcia,

The power of imagination and how the brain responds is truly amazing. For years now, my dreams continue to be fulfilled, one at a time. I can do this because I focus on what I want. As you mentioned, I have to believe and have faith, no matter what, that what I am thinking of will materialize. It’s been said that we dream dreams at night and so do we also dream dreams in the day. Therefore, anything is possible when we hold on to our dream and press on until we get the expected results.

Peace & be well.

Although I started to read my first English book 4 years ago, I realized that I have the ability to dream big. When I traveled through India for 100 days, I discovered I can dream the impossible. As I reflect on self-publishing my inward journey, I learned that I have the power to make my big dream to reality. Who would think a person did not know how to spell English words can write a 300 pages book? But I was persistent, showing up 15 hours to do my best each day for 9 months. Through my determination and self-discipline actions, it enabled me to overcome my fears of the unknown, frustrations with English, and other breakdowns. One year later, I accomplished my goals and my big dream flourished.

I share this journey with you in hope it will inspire people to dare to dream big. If I could triumph in such a challenging task, I believe it is important for me to help others to realize that they have the potential to achieve their dreams as well. I learned to dare to let my music be heard, to believe in myself, to believe in the Divine force when She gave me a dream because She also gave me the power to achieve the impossible.

What are your dreams?
Do they seem impossible?
Set your goal, don’t give up when you face challenges, and stay focus and show persistence and believe in yourself, as you will discover the power within is truly incredible!!

This is a particularly interesting time for me…retired from a management position in the USPS and now on my own in a business consulting others. I have found that faith in myself, faith in my abilities is necessary to keep me focused on my goal. In a lackluster economy it is easy to lose focus. But, each day brings future possibilities and I stay focused on that fact. I know that success is just around the corner and so I continue on one day at a time – one client at a time. There are two types of clients in my mind…those that I am consulting and those that I will be consulting someday soon. Carpe Diem!

Marcia,
This video reminded me of how I manifested
a whole month in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico last February. I wanted to stay at Club Regina and they had been booked for a whole year ahead of time. I sent the intention on my Dream Board and 2 people canceled their reservations which gave me three weeks. The middle week wasn’t available and I wondered what I was going to do. I keep the faith and a week before I was to leave the middle week became available.

I had the most wonderful time in PV and I am intending to create 3 months there in the futre.

Hi Marcia,

Very good video. It really is all about faith – faith in yourself and faith in the “process”. Whatever we want in life, if we really don’t have enough faith in ourselves or faith that whatever it is will happen for us, then we are merely spinning our wheels. To me, a big part of faith is knowing what you want, feeling and seeing yourself with it, knowing you’ve got it, and then………..letting go. Live in courageousness, acceptance, and peace.

Guiomar

   

Thank you very much sweet angel of wisdom words. It seems that times invite us to be down, and the universe with all its love put miracles in front of us, like you, to empower our spirits, so we can continue. And all the concepts you share are just in time always, I feel very happy to receive today your faith, your dreaming stamina and your presence. Light and magic!

I enjoyed reading the responses above. It helps me and ignites my passions. I have dreamed and now living in my dream home that I thought could not be possible. I lost the majority of my income do to the economic down fall the past year and half and intend to become financially independent. I have dreams and aspirations and visualize myself in these scenarios of helping others overcome –
I have done this for years in a volunteer setting and now seeking ways to help and live comfortably at the same time.
Marcia – your videos are helpful and keep me inspired. Thank you!

Hi Marcia, thanks for your joyful video. The feedback from people is soo good. I had intentions three years ago when I went back to college to become a chef. But lost my focus and made some poor choices and left school with only 3 credit classes left to achieve my associates degree. I am 52 years young and don’t have any experience in the work force, since I have chose the last 30 years to raise four wonderful children, I feel stuck and alone. I am needing to focus on faith that everything will work out fine. Hoping to successfully own my own business soon. Thanks for the hope.

Thank You Marcia!

It is so true! We need to live intentionally in the direction of our dreams and goals, not just say them. And I have found such a relief and strength in proclaiming my desires and intentions to God and then letting him know I have complete faith in HIM that he’ll lead me/us in the right direction at the right time. All the while I am doing everything humanly possible to continue stepping toward that intention and goal! I’m not just sitting back waiting for it to happen for me, I’m living it! Everytime I do this, my dreams materialize! But this faith I’ve allowed myself to have completely in God has opened my eyes to my somewhat lack of faith in myself and has helped me to say, Hey I have faith in you, in your dreams!

So thank you for this reminder about the word faith when it comes to intention! Keep your dreams alive by living even a small piece of them everyday!

Happy intentional living to all!

Nancy

   

Hi Marcia,

You always seem to know exactly how I am feeling at this point in my life. I am thankful to have a good, full time job. However, I am constantly pulled by other passions. I have no idea where to start or if I should stick with where I am and just fulfill those needs as “past time” enjoyments. I have 2 step-daughters in college, so my income is very important right now………….

gerry

   

Hi Marcia,

I am in the process now of “having faith” that I find my next great working adventure. I will let you know how is comes out.

Annette

   

Your point from this video that has stood out for me today is- appreciate your gifts. In the weekend I played music in a band at a festival. Thinking back with this thought forefront in my mind, I now realise I have acheived a dream- to give myself and others pleasure playing music. I have been working so hard toward this goal I hadn’t realised that over time, the goal posts had shifted along with my achievements. Thank-you Marcia, today I will pause and appreciate the place all my hard work has gotten me. That I am good enough for my dreams to come true. Instead of continually pushing myself to do more, and causing myself unhealthy stress, I am going to appreciate what makes me ME.

I have been a millionaire twice and lost everything, although totally broke right now I am going for it a third time, my goal this time is $1 billion. My biggest success came about 11 years ago when I sold what at that time was one of the largest insurance policies ever written with a premium of $250 million. I went to a flotation tank and meditated for an hour every day for about 3 months picturing a positive outcome.

to heather walker–ist on blog…

i too am thinking about/working on a narrative of sorts…who knows–it may turn into a book. i have been one an amazing healing journey with fm/cfs. mine came after a brain injury. if you haven’t already, please look up jacob teitelbam’s research findings and protocals. it may be helpful to you. i live here in hawaii where he lives and have had the honor of meeting him. one of the books he wrote, i called my “fibro bible,” as it was the most helpful of all. i wish you well heather in your journey, and would like to keep in touch with you. i am on facebook as deborah ozaki, hawaii, so if you wish to correspond, please contact me. in terms of manifesting intentions, although it is working wonderfully for me, i must practice every day. blessings to you “healther.” i send you much healing energy.

Nice inspirational message, thank you for sharing. I am realizing that so much of what I have been savoring in my sub-conscious for many years is suddenly beginning to blossom like a flower in the Spring time. Dreams that I have held for years in my heart are bursting forth. One year ago I would never have believed I would write a book, and yet I just did, for almost 40 years I have dreamed of helping children of divorce, and now here I am beginning my own coaching business. It goes to show: hold onto those dreams, and believe in them happening when the time is right, they will come.

I am cleaning my office (a yearly ritual) and came across old Xmas cards. There are so many people I have lost touch with, so I started making a list and calling them. Now today, I have had two people call me who I didn’t have on my list. It’s almost creepy! But my intentions are to re-connect with as many people as I can, since it’s important for us all to be a support to one another. And as these people re-enter my life, I find no real time has gone by in our conversation.

Marcia,
Incredible timing! I am working my Avon full time now. My plan this sales year is to reach Inner Circle. Something nobody in my Sales District has ever done. I am using Fund-Raisers as a method to reach this goal. I have to accumulate $280,000 in sales. Right now this is my goal, dream, passion & intention! I have two fund-raisers going on now, & another one scheduled for June, & alot more to prospect for!!!! I have plans to go beyond my goal, not just reach it!!!!!
Thanks for sending me the email. I appreciate it.

Marie-France

   

Hello!
Thank you so much for your interesting method! I know that I have recently (in the last couple of years) been doing this – instinctively. Maybe it’s my personality. But more likely, it is indeed the fact that I believe that good things I wish for, will happen in my life, if I truely believe and act as if they will indeed happen.

I wanted love – true compationate and exciting love. That was 2 years ago. I recently got married to the sweetest man on Earth who adores me. I wanted to get back to where I really loved to be – the quiete country side, near a fun city. My love and I just moved to a cute little homestead in an area that is a protected agricultural zone, just 15 minutes from the very city we met – 33 years ago!! Right now, we are two VERY excited and happy people, I can tell you!

My new desire is to become self sufficient – meaning not work for a company, whose agenda, I don’t belive in – as I am doing, at present. But I have not concentrated on visualising what that would be, for long enough to get the answer. I have some notion of it though: I love “how to” books and sometimes I feel: “wouldn’t that be terrific for me to write books that are truely useful, interesting, fun, inspiring and truely helpful to thousand of people out there”?

But I am no writer (well, that is not true. I can write well in French and in English). But it is hard to imagine living off writing books.

Oh, how I would love continue to live in this paradise country side and just write and sell very wonderful “how to” books!

I just need to find out what the subjects would be…. Hum maybe I’ll write to you in two years (usually the time it takes me to realise my litte (and big) projects) and will be able to send you my first book? Sounds hard though…Any ideas on how to get started?

Thanks you for who you are! Thank you for your messages. They help me.
Sincerely,
Marie-France

Yes I have found out that having faith in myself and my dreams and doing what I love has changed my life!!I left my job becaue I was sick and tired of working to make others rich.I am now doing network marketing with a passion and it is working for me like it never did in the past.I always wanted to help others and that is what this is all about. When I help others succeed it feels so great!!

I had been diagnosed with a postive stress test showing I was not getting enough oxygen to my heart plus ahd a irregular EKG – sometimes it was good and sometimes bad. It was affecting me with lowered enery, bad moods and host of other things. I pushed forward against comment from various doctors and specialists concerning women and false positives finally after 7 months i found out what it was – a small blocked artery and then I wanted it fixed. My cardiologist – a specialist said too risky as it was a branch off an artery and I said have faith and you will be able to fix it and guess what!!! Once he got in there,it was a piece of cake and its fixed and I feel 200% better and can have my life back again. From the beginning I had faith that I would be fixed and without that faith I dont know where I would be now. Beleive and it will work!!!

Marcia,
Thank you, thank you ,thank you… I had a recent loss that distracted me and cause me to feel a little bit lost and totally away from intention… your inspiring video sparkled in me the desire to recommit in my intention… I’ll work on it today!!!

Alice

   

Dear Marcia!
How timely of you to share this encouragement. I study, I plan what I think will enable me to set my program in motion, but I am not able to move from words and plans to action and success.
If your advice works for so many there must be something I am not hearing and am not doing. I will try again with more attention and courage, Thanks for your help.

I love any inspiration that is focused around INTENTION! Instead of setting goals this year…I set INTENTIONS! Not only for me, but I shared my INTENTIONS with my worker bees~ Personal Intentions, as well as Team Intentions…I refer to them often and feel exhilarated by them. Those INTENTIONS are coming to LIFE and I am very grateful! Thanks Marcia!

this video got me going again, i was gettin in a slumpo and feeling hih levels of anxiety but this came as my boost, most recently i had a desire to get a new car the infiniti g37 black, and I began to really have faith about it, long story short, i am nowolling down I-40 in my Infiniti…never stop believing

R. Lindsay

   

As others have written, I have also seen synchronicities abound in my life, especially now that I am aware. I’ve also been able to manifest people I need to come into my life. One example is my search for a physician who would listen to my needs and appreciate my knowledge after I fired my first doc. It took going outside the system to discover that my next doc would be in the same practice as my first. He also appreciates energy medicine which is an interest of mine. I set my intention and found the doc that I had been seeking in the same place!

Sheila Pearl, Life Coach

   

I just LOVE this video Marcia! It is SOOO true, everything you say! Back in October 2008, I had a clear intention to have Bob Proctor write the Foreword for a book I had co-authored with a friend, and went on the Bob Proctor Cruise to the Caribbean, following Bob throughout the ship, and then choosing my moment to ask him to look at my book and to consider writing the Foreword. And…he did! Then…last May, I went to a workshop that Neale Donald Walsch was giving at Omega in Rhinebeck, and brought with me the first section of a book I’ve been working on, presented it to Neale, and asked him if he would consider writing the Foreword for THAT book… And… he did! There would have been a time that it would never had occurred to me to ASK, because my intention would never have existed, because I never would have DREAMED it could happen. But…it did. Why? Because I had a clear intention, I believed in myself and my dream, and then… I ASKED!

Sharon Tan

   

Thank-you Marcia, YOU are a life-changer!!!

i LOVE TO COACH!!!so starting in the month of May I’m now marketting a coaching group in my area, its called
‘Change Your focus, Change YOUR World in 30 Days” I have gathered a great team to bounce ideas of and I’m intentional on being a voice to many to bring transformation and life changes to create a great legacies. Love you Sharon Tan Australia

kim kaufman

   

Although i enjoy what you say and have taken it to heart, i am finishing my masters degree and feel like life is on hold until i reach that goal in 4 months. then i want to delve into this coaching and realizing my dreams as i recreate of obtain a better career/job position, earn money, and share life, while being productive. thank you, and i look forward to more as i graduate and move to the next step.

Thanks for your inspirational words. I am in the midst of reinventing myself and realize that my DREAM is simply to excavate my true DREAM. This lengthy passion quest has had many twists and turns, including a fall resulting in a broken arm in February. Yet through it all I’m convinced that there are messages and opportunities in every experience and know that if I stay intent on listening to my heart and believing there is a DREAM in there just waiting for me to really hear, then the clarity and action will kick in.
So, my intention? Believe there is gold within, and staying open in my quest for it to be revealed.

I’m making this book right here in the U.S.A. even though people told me it couldn’t be done. Thanks Marcia for helping me learn to deal with my doubters. Writing and making this book has been a dream of mine and now it’s coming true (and helping people here keep their jobs). I have no doubt that I will have the first book in my hands soon.
View the video here http://www.youtube.com/user/8StateKate#p/a/u/0/VIsoLrAp1SM

Thank you, Marcia, for helping make dreams come true.

Shelly

   

Marcia,

Just what I needed to hear tonight. I realized I was not believing in my own dream. Watching this reminded me how everyone poo pooed your vision of helping people make their dreams come true and you stayed true to it.

I am working with my new partner (who I clearly created out of my intention) on my dream of transforming the way in which people parent and I wasn’t believing in my own dream. I convinced myself from past experiences that parents wouldn’t give up a whole weekend to learn how to be a better parent.

Tomorrow I am going to eliminate those beliefs using the our process and get to work.

You really are an inspiration because you truly walk your talk. Thank you for being my friend.

Sarjit Singh

   

Marcia…thanks for sharing this inspiring video on the power of intention. It does remind me to set my intention(s) for the day and be committed to follow up with the right actions to get the outcomes i desire. Thanks for your intention in sharing it with us.

Brian Hester

   

Marcia, we (my wife and I) are living in the house of our dreams, thanks to intention and faith. When we looked at this house the first time about two years ago, the asking price was $10K out of our range and the market had no room to lowball an offer (we thought). We intended to buy the house, with the faith to know that we were destined for “this or something better, but always Highest Good”. In the meantime the housing market softened in our area, and the house was taken off the market briefly and then re-listed at $15K less than before. We offered a fair price and were accepted right away. Both the Mortgage Broker and our realtor said that this was the smoothest loan and sale that they had participated in for a long time. We just smiled and stated that we are all Intention Masters and it matters what we intend. Our realtor was amazed at how calm we were during the process, and how many people we blessed by buying the house with the attitude of faith and intention and undivided but relaxed focus. Since we were not attached to the result (This or something better, and always Highest Good for all), we were ready for whatever came up, and truly enjoyed the process and the result: Our new house.

Randi Larsen

   

Thank you Marcia!!

I loved the part about “faith.” I have the toughtest challenge right now with faith in myself. I am going to make an intention tomorrow to have faith in myself for the day, one moment at a time!

I’ll let you know how it goes! God Bless you Sweet Friend~ You are the Best!!

Just a little over a year ago I took the leap of faith and made a huge move! This leap has led to so many great things including my landing a job of my dreams, where I work with fabulously positive colleagues who inspire me daily, I have contributed my own ‘life’ story towards a book which will be published next month (book launch May 14, 2010) AND after many years of ‘wanting’ that dream trip, just booked my dream vacation for January 2011! A carribean cruise!

The power of intention setting, repeating and believing are truly amazing. The recent creation of my Vision Board was a huge motivator and great tool to see my goals as if accomplished!

I am a true believer in the law of attraction and truly have asked, “believed” and continue to receive!

Life is fabulous!!

Anne Naylor

   

It took 20 years of incubation before I had my first, then two more books published. The intention was so clear in my heart when the time was right, a publisher asked me to write the books. I did not have to go and find one.

Marcia,

Thank you for the vidoe message, I am soaking up every motivational morsel I can get mt hands, eyes and ears on! I am a direct sales consultant and have been for 12 years. I quit my job as a Teacher to pursue my DREAM of becoming a Regional Vice President within my direct sales company.I’ve just completed earning an all expences paid cruise to Europe-that was both exciting & stressful. I feel stuck, I’ve had this dream of RVP for the last 5 years and am not even close. Last week my vehicle was totalled and while I’m happy to be alive-no car in direct sales is a major setback. So while I wait for the other insurance company to replace my vehicle I have to try to figure out how to stay focused on my dream and not GIVE up. Keep the motivations coming. xoxo

Marcia,
thank you for this encouraging video! It came just when I was thinking about intentions and set backs..
Before, I would dream about a job in a middle of a crisis, and things would start to move- calls came from recruiters, I would go for a several rounds of interviews with really WOW- companies that I never dreamed of, and then – nothing… no result. So I would get desperate and say- come what may, I will just accept whatever comes and drift along.. and then BANG – comes the job landed in a week without any effort, when I least expected it. So, my point is – perhaps, the key is to keep the intention in your head, but at the same time to “drift along” and not to obssess too much about your dream.. and it will come true.
I always wanted to have my own business, and in less than a year I do! But now I have experienced another set back while trying to lend a major client- a very big fish.. but I am not losing hope. It will happen!

In the Autumn (Fall) I realised that one of my contracts for my business would not be renewed because of the cutbacks in public spending here in Ireland. I decided to diversify and build another side of my business – social media marketing. I took an online course with VA Classroom (Canada) and I’m now reaping the benefit by getting clients. I know that I have to use my own skills and confidence to gain the business and not wait for it to come to me. Your video is inspirational – thank you.

Thank you for reminding me that faith is the key to harmonic wealth. I needed this today. Everything starts with being able to stand up for your beliefs, breathe and walk the function.

Thank you so much Marcia for the reminder of not only intention, but faith. My story began about ten years ago. I believed in my heart that I would someday live in a little yellow house with white trim and a white picket fence. I told my children, family and friends. Two years ago, while living in a very small apartment, I bought a place mat with beautiful Tuscan colors and again told all my friends and family that these colors would be my front room, dining room and kitchen someday. I had faith and truly believed what I imagined in my mind. There was a yellow and white house I looked at for years. I had always thought it was going to be my house. I passed it every day on my way to work. One day I looked at it and got this feeling deep in my soul that it was not going to be mine. I was heartbroken and confused but I still had faith in my dream. Several days later, I was driving home, down a road I have driven hundreds of times. I saw a “for rent” sign in the front of a beautiful yellow house with white trim and a little white picket fence. I had never noticed this house before and thought I was imagining it. I did not have good credit or make a lot of money and was afraid to even call on the house for fear of rejection. Then I remembered my dream and my faith. When we went to see the inside of the house, the property manager said the owner insisted the color of the walls could not be changed. To mine and my family’s amazement, the walls were painted the exact colors of that place mat I had bought two years before! Needless to say, the house was rented to us. Moving in was truly a dream come true. The best part is that my children, family and friends have seen and believe the power of intention and faith! Now my intention is to buy this house and make an living by living my passion!

Thank you for the reminder — to love what I do, value my gift, charge my worth – to have faith in my intentions – to reach out and share with others – to give my gift to others, then let them be accountable and responsible for what they do with that gift -

Thank you, Marcia, for presenting such optimistic thoughts and feelings without asking me to sign up for an expensive course. And thank you for giving a worthwhile message in less than four minutes. I am offered many webinars that promise information but turn out to be nothing more than giant time wasting commercials. You show true caring for people and for helping others achieve their goals and desires. How refreshing!

This message is to anyone who believes they are “stuck” in life. I used to believe I was stuck until one day I realized there is no such thing as being stuck. “Life is always moving”.What was stuck was, my belied of being stuck. It was just an illusion that I created because I “felt” that my life wasn’t moving when in fact it was moving but just in neutral. Just like the automobile engine is still turning despite the fact it is in neutral, our lives are still turning despite the fact we are idle or “feeling stuck”. Once I realized that being stuck is just a state of mind, I was able to release it and change gears. This meant taking a new approach to my goals accepting the fact that I wasn’t getting the results I intended because I was fulfilling the long accepted definition of insanity and that is, doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results.

If you “feeling stuck”, you are not. You just convinced yourself that you are.

Letting go of the old including the feeling of being stuck, is the way to make room for the new. So choose new paths to your intention and remember where you’ve been has no bearing over where you are going unless of course “you decide to let it”

Thank you so much!!! This message came right on time for me. I have had many set backs in the last five years. I have had one great miracle to happen to me. I found the love of my life. A wonerful man my dream guy! I met him online in 2001 and we met in person in 2001 in August, and were happily married in august of 2001. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful man in my life. I set my intentions on him from the begining, at the time I was heavly involved in meditation and Silva mind control. I had all types of blessing come my way. It was like living a dream. Some really bad things happened in my life and I lost faith, and I lost hope to a degree. Since that time. I have moved to England with my husband. I love it here!! It has always been my dream to live in England. It happened for me. Dreams do come true.

Hi Marcia. I have been on your email list for at least 4 years now (maybe longer). I first heard of you and the university from a woman’s mag. I have always been a big dreamer and your article reinforced that it’s good to dream big. Thank you for all of your inspiration. You don’t know how far I have come. And I still have a little ways to go.

In thinking of a comment, I realized that I have used intent a lot in 1 certain area of my life – healing my body. When a lump grew in my arm, I decided that I did not want it. After an outpatient surgery removed the walnut-size lump, others grew. Hmm, surgery was not the solution. I decided that there was an answer ‘out there’ that would come to me. I had 100% certainty that the lumps were a manifestation of energy that could be released. Months later, I met a healer whose simple method clicked. Within 24 hrs the 5 marble-like lumps under my skin were gone.
Another time, suddenly the joints in my fingers became ‘arthritic’. My hands became clumsy. Some joints wouldn’t bend. Again, I had an intention that this was not permanent & there was an answer that would come to me to restore the flexibility in my fingers. Within weeks, I got that answer, released the blocks, and have normal use & flexibility again.
I do know & have seen the power of intention in my life many times. Now I get to apply it to my dreams.
Thank you, Marcia for reminding me of what I already know.

Thank you Marcia for the inspiration.
A positive thinking, wegetarian food, a healer and physiotherapy helped me get my health back after an operation.
I wrote a journal every day about what I had accomplished each day and welcomed the little steps that brought me to health again which took many years.
I am thankful for life, the nature and wonderful people like you.

Marcia,
I spent most of my life pursuing the dream of becoming an university professor. Despite many trips to the hospital from my Lupus flares I managed to get a B.Sc.(honors), a M.Sc. and was working on my Ph.D. Unfortunately my health continued to deteriorate until I had to withdraw from my PhD, stop working as a teaching assistant, and go on disability income assistance.
Without my goal, my dream, I fell apart. I lost all faith in my ability to do anything and couldn’t see any future for myself and felt I had no value. But I didn’t like being miserable all the time. My doctors basically told me that I would be permanently disabled. I decided that I’m going to find out what’s wrong and get better. I have been through many specialists and many tests, and a lot of doctors dismissing me saying “there is something wrong but I can’t figure out what it is so there is nothing I can do” My intention was to get better so that statement isn’t good enough. I have continued to pursue my dream of getting healthy and restarting my life. I talked to anyone who would listen (repeat often) about my difficulties. From an unlikely place I was told about a medical group that works with hard to diagnose cases and one doctor in particular that works with cases like mine. I now have a referral in to see her and am one step closer to my dream. I truly believe that if you want something badly enough and pursue it with vigor you can achieve your dreams. Soon I will be health again

So true! No matter what level you achieve, there’s always that weakening of trust that needs to be constantly renewed. Just the other day, I went through a meditative process to remind myself of confidence and trust–and the next three days were miracles! Keep up the good work.

I live in constant faith that my Beauty/ Massage business will be successful. My faith is not just monitary, but also that every treatment I do, my clients walk away feeling a little better in some way. So far I have had no complaints, my faith is working…. I love faith…

the power of intentions seems to be hitting me from every direction lately. Spirit is making it’s message known. Thanks for sharing your insight

I have realized the power of intention in so many areas of my life. I keep a note book entitled “Book of Proof.” I have been succesful manifesting in every area of my life except love. I have not given up, I will continue to intend and desire

Sometimes bad things happen for good reasons. That is my motto in life right now. Let me explain. I recently lost my job. Normally that is thought of as a bad thing, but not for me. It released mne from a situation I was holding on to because of convenience and has allowed me to pursue a long held dream of working with animals. Because I lost my job, I now have time to pursue this new dream and life that would have been difficult to do before. While my life is still in a state of transition now, I know that I am heading toward something amazing all because something bad happened for a good reason.

Thank you for your timely, inspiring words! I’m going to begin today to truly live with intention!

Dear Marcia,
Being one of your students in the recent 90 days program where we made the concious choice to have FAITH for our dream to come true, was life changing. I’m a typical artist, that has difficulty making money, because taking action is a new habit still. In the program I took action in the LAST week, but the point is that I DID IT. I painted pictures for one week becoming aware of my joy and my freedom as a paintor. That is a proof of FAITH when a dream is born through it’s first project. I am so lucky to have had a taste of a dream come true. It all started with the intention to become a professional artist.
Thank you,
Manon Laurin

possibilities live in conversation, and die in silence. The same is true of intention. Children need tended to daily. At first, their life is actually in our hands..with time less so…and one day..they will be vibrant loving fully self sustaining dynamo’s. So it is with our dreams and intentions. They are most fragile at conception, and require the breath of life (Remember from the bible..before all there was “the word”)constantly. Do our dreams and goals fail to become a reality..or do we simply not accept and execute the needed level of card they require after conception?
HHmmm…..something to think about.

After many many many years of living totaly self absorbed and selfish to a fault. I have learned truely that what you give out to others only helps you grow in yourself.

Michelle

   

Through much faith, I have been led to further pursue my passion to help others and have begun writing my first book. I know this will take time and hard work as any project does. This is my next journey in life coaching and I’m anxious to see where the road leads. As I continue to work hard to achieve this new goal, I know that my faith will be the driving force of my success! Thanks so much for the continued inspiration! Your emails are heartfelt and remind us to keep reaching for the stars!

I told a friend about my dream! Which involves helping others and making them laugh!
