Intention Matters! So… Know Your Intentions When You Give

Whenever you are giving something, your intention behind the gift is the most important part. A person who gives just for themselves will never find what they are looking for. The universe likes those people who intend for a greater good.

So, what is intention exactly? Well… intention is the energy that fuels what you are doing or giving. If you don’t know what your intention is, you’re likely feeling confused and unfulfilled about why you’re giving in the first place. When you get clear on your intention, you’re closer to making your gifts count. Intention is like the thought behind the thought. Intention is the reason why you give what you do!

For example, if you’re giving a gift of your time or money to your church and your intention is to make it even better, you’ll see this gift come to fruition as improvement are made and more people are curious to attend. But if you are giving a gift of time or money to your neighbors because it seems like the right thing to do, but deep down you’re not sure why you’re giving, the lack of purpose will cause you to feel short changed in the end.

The clearer you can be on your intention, the easier it is to find satisfaction and make your gifts count. You can try to fool others, but you can’t fool yourself (or the universe!). It is only your intention that matters, not anyone else’s. Other people can think what they want, but your thoughts are the ones that matter.

There is an intention behind everything—behind every kind act, behind every gift, behind every action. When your intention is clear and solid in your mind, it will solidify.

So, build yourself a world of good intentions! Think of what you’re giving as part of a treasure hunt that keeps leading you to wonderful things.
