Traditional
goal-setting exercises show us how to crawl toward the outcome in baby-step
goals, each step meant to build up our self-confidence until desire turns into
belief. This can take a long time.
An intention, on the other hand, is a goal but with all doubt about its
attainment removed. Baby steps are not needed
because there is no doubt about getting what we desire. Instead of inching
toward it, we can simply sit back and let it come running to us. The main
dissimilarity, however, between intentions and goals is direction of effort.
With goals, we push effort toward the object. With intentions, we draw or
attract the object to us.
This may seem like a subtle shift in thinking, but it is an
important one if you want to move from accomplishing a few goals
to achieving any all of the goals you set. Small changes in how we think
make huge differences attracting the success you desire.
