What Does Intention Mean in Manifestation

Intention setting is a key step in manifesting. The intention is your mental state or attitude while taking action toward your manifestation goal.

So, the intention you set is really the driving force behind the manifestation process and helps align your thoughts, emotions, and actions toward your desired outcome.

In other words, an intention is a state where you live that allows you to stay connected and grounded to your purpose.

Setting an intention is like deciding how you will act, think, or feel in any given situation before it occurs. Having the right manifestation intention can help keep you in the right emotional state to align with your deepest desires.

That’s where you create vibrational alignment between your subconscious and your goals, which is one of the big secrets of how manifestation works.

Anytime you ask yourself, how do I want to (…) and then finish the sentence with how you are going to feel, act, or think, you are asking yourself what intention you want to set.


Intention Vs Manifestation – What is the Difference Between Intentions and Manifestation?

Intention and manifestation are two interconnected concepts that work together to bring your desires to life. But they do often get confused.

Intention is the initial step towards manifestation, where you set a clear and specific goal for what you want to achieve.

With the intention, you give your manifestation goal more meaning (it’s about asking “why” you want it and how it should make you feel)

On the other hand, manifesting is the process of bringing your goals and intentions into reality by aligning your thoughts, emotions, and actions toward your goal.

While intentions and goals are the starting point of manifestation, it is not enough to achieve your desired outcome. You also need to take inspired action towards your goals and maintain a positive mindset to manifest your intention successfully.

Manifestation requires a combination of intention, action, and belief to bring your desires to life.

Intentions Vs Goals – What is the Difference Between Setting Intentions and Manifestation Goals

Goals and intentions are often used interchangeably, but they have different meanings in the context of manifestation.

Manifestation goals are the specific outcomes you want to achieve, while intentions are the mental states or attitudes you hold while pursuing your goals.

When setting goals for manifestation, you always want to emphasize your intentions; that’s where they differ greatly from traditional goal-setting.

Here is a post I wrote about manifestation goal examples if you want to learn more about how to write goals specific for manifestation.

The Power of Intention – Why Are Intentions Important For Manifesting Your Dreams

When it comes to manifesting your dreams, intentions play a crucial role. Your intentions are essentially your roadmap to achieving your goals. They help you stay focused, motivated, and aligned with your desires.

Here are a few reasons why intentions are important for manifesting your dreams:

1. Intentions give you clarity

Setting clear intentions helps you gain clarity about what you truly want. When you know what you want, you can focus your energy and efforts on achieving it. Without clarity, you may end up wasting your time and resources on things that don’t align with your goals.

That’s what I mean by “roadmap,” – but most importantly, intentions are the roadmap for your subconscious mind because your emotional level is how you communicate your goals to your subconscious.

2. Intentions help you stay motivated

When you set intentions, you create a sense of purpose and direction.

This can help you stay motivated and committed to your goals, even when faced with challenges and obstacles. Intentions give you a reason to keep pushing forward, even when things get tough.

With your intentions, you really tap into the WHY behind your goals, and that’s a very strong motivational trigger for your manifestation and will help you take inspired action toward your goals.

3. Intentions align your energy

Your intentions are like a magnet that attracts the things you want into your life. When you set clear intentions, you align your energy with your desires, which can help you manifest your dreams more easily.

Our thoughts and actions become more focused and aligned with our goals, which can help us achieve them faster. But not just with your conscious manifestation goals; this also works with your subconscious goals.

4. Intentions help you overcome limiting beliefs

Setting intentions can help you overcome limiting beliefs and negative thought patterns that may hold you back. When you set a clear intent, you create a positive mindset that can help you overcome self-doubt and fear.

And since abundance blocks are important to address when manifesting, this can help you achieve your goals more easily and confidently.

Common Mistakes in Setting Intentions

When setting intentions for manifestation, most people make some common mistakes. These mistakes can prevent you from achieving your goals and manifesting your desires.

Here are some common mistakes you should avoid when setting intentions:

1. Being Too Vague

Setting intentions that are too vague is one of the biggest mistakes people make. If your intention is too general, it will be difficult for your subconscious to understand them correctly.

You want to be crystal clear when talking to your subconscious, letting them know exactly what you want and why.

2. Focusing on What You Don’t Want

Another common mistake is focusing on what you don’t want. The problem is that your subconscious can’t distinguish between what you do want and what you do not want.

So, when you focus on what you don’t want, you actually attract more of it into your life.

3. Not Taking Action

Setting intentions is important, but it’s not enough. You also need to take action to achieve your manifestation goals.

If you don’t take action, you won’t see any results. Make sure you have a plan in place and take action every day towards your goals.

4. Not Believing in Yourself

Finally, not believing in yourself can be a mistake. If you don’t believe in yourself, you may not have the confidence to take action towards your goals.

Remember that you have the power to manifest your desires, and believe in yourself and your ability to achieve your goals. But even with setting the best intentions and goals, you still need to address abundance blocks and limiting beliefs.

How To Write Your Personal Intention Statement

When writing your own intention for manifestation, it’s important to be specific, and positive, also, use the present tense, whenever possible.

Use language that resonates with you and feels authentic to your own values and desires.

You also want to state them in a way that is simple and repeatable easily and quickly because that’s easier for your subconscious to understand.

Remember, the power of manifestation lies in your ability to align your thoughts, emotions, and actions towards your goals. Communicate them clearly with your subconscious mind so that your subconscious can guide you on your path to manifest your goals.

Manifestation Expert Tip: Try this as a great intention exercise; When you step into a new situation always consciously set your intention for this new situation.

For example, you get into your car, and before you start the motor, you set the intention for this particular trip. Or when entering a new environment, take the time to set your intention for this new situation, the people you’ll meet, or the conversations you are about to have.

Step 1: Get clear on what you want

Before you can write your intention statement, you need to get clear on what you want to manifest in your life. Take some time to reflect on your desires and goals. What do you truly want? What would make you happy?

Write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal or on a piece of paper.

Step 2: Tap into your WHY

Asking for your “why” behind a goal is really the secret to how to come up with powerful manifestation intention. But don’t just ask once; ask as many times you need, until you figure out what exactly it is you want.

Step 3: Use positive language

When writing your intention statement, use positive language. Instead of focusing on what you don’t want, focus on what you do want. Remember that it is important for your subconscious to understand your intentions.

So, instead of saying, “I don’t want to be in debt,” say, “I am financially abundant.” Use words that evoke positive emotions and feelings.

Step 4: Be specific

Be specific in your intention statement. Instead of saying, “I want a better job,” say, “I am working in my dream job, earning a salary that allows me to live comfortably.” The more specific you are, the more focused your energy and attention will be.

Manifestation Expert Tip: Getting crystal clear on what you want is key in manifestation. But setting intention is really the answer to this. It’s so much more important to concentrate on how something should make you feel, than how something should be, or look like.

Because your emotions are the languague you use to communicate with your subconscious.

Step 5: Use present tense

Write your intention statement in the present tense as if it has already happened. For example, instead of saying, “I will be happy,” say, “I am happy.” This helps you align your thoughts and feelings with the reality you want to create.

Step 6: Believe in your statement

Believe in your intention statement. Trust that the universe will bring you what you desire. Visualize yourself living the reality you want to create. The more you believe in your statement, the more likely it is to come true.

Following these steps can create a powerful intention statement that helps you manifest your desires and goals. Remember to keep your statement positive, specific, and in the present tense.

Believe in yourself and trust that the universe will bring you what you desire.

Tips for Effective Manifestation

Manifestation is a powerful tool that can help you create the life you want. However, it’s important to approach it with the right mindset and techniques to ensure effective manifestation.

Here are some tips to help you manifest your intentions successfully:

1. Get clear on your intention

Before setting an intention for manifestation, it’s important to identify what you want to create in the present moment. Take some time to get clarity on how you would like your life to look and how you would like to feel in the process.

Write down your intention in a clear and specific way, using positive language and present tense.

2. Believe in your intention

Belief is crucial for effective manifestation. You must believe that your intention is possible and that the universe (that’s really your subconscious mind) will help you to manifest it.

Trust that the universe has your back and that it will guide you towards your desires.

3. Visualize your intention

Visualization is a powerful technique that can help you manifest your desires. Take some time each day to visualize yourself as having already achieved your intention.

Use all your senses to create a vivid mental picture of your desired outcome.

4. Let go of attachment

Finally, it’s important to let go of attachment to your intention. Avoid becoming fixated on the outcome and instead focus on the present moment.

Trust that the universe will bring you what you need at the right time, even if it’s not exactly what you had in mind. That’s also where you have to work on your belief system and other abundance blocks.

5. Take inspired action

Manifestation is not just about thinking positively and waiting for things to happen. You must also take inspired action towards your intention.

This means taking small steps towards your goal, trusting that the subconscious mind will guide you towards the right actions.
