Intentional Dimension

It isn’t possible to change other people, but they do respond differently around you when you have chosen to be joyful. It’s empowering to know that you can enhance life’s experiences by changing your perception.

Set Your Intentions

When our children were at high school, they would come home and I would always ask them how their day had been. If it were any less than great, I would ask them if they had set their intentions in the morning. Invariably they would say they hadn’t, so what they were experiencing were default intentions. They came to learn this very quickly, as there were direct consequences for their laziness in not setting intentions. If you are unsure of what default intentions you have, it is the balance of your mood during the day. You can’t experience anything other than your intentions.

The simplicity of changing their experience was to consciously tell themselves they were going to have a great day, and believe it as they left for school. The Universe was obliging, as when they moved into the space of a ‘great day’, their experiences changed.

It sounds so simple, and yet is a very effective method. As a parent, I never got involved in the situation of what had happened if they had not set their intentions, as they knew the whole situation could have been avoided had they set up their day intentionally. The irritable teacher may still be the same, I pointed out, but you are no longer in her sights as you aren’t her vibrational match.

You Can’t Control Others

You can’t change other people but you can certainly change how you feel about someone. And that changes everything, as when you feel differently, you perceive your environment differently. This creates a new path that matches how you feel.
