With clarity of intention, we can begin looking at everything that shows up in our lives as perfect. By setting our intentions, we have announced our desired outcome to the Universe. Now everything is set in motion so that this desired outcome can manifest itself into our lives.
Sometimes, what shows up is drama and upheaval. Announcing our clear intention causes everything in our lives that is misaligned with that intention to show up in a big way, so that these vibrations can be addressed. Anything that needs to be healed, to be shifted, or to be cleared will make itself known. Anything that does not serve us in manifesting our intention needs to make room for new energies that help us create what we want.
Perhaps you’ve had the experience of complete clarity, a moment where you knew without a shred of doubt what you were going to create. Perhaps in that moment you boldly announced your desires to the Universe. And perhaps, everything suddenly seemed to fall apart! A few months later, you catch your breath in awe. You realize that somehow, out of drama and change, ups and downs, you have created exactly what you wanted! And you are no longer the same Being. Everything is different, all because you announced your intention.
While big intentions might take us for a wild ride of transformation, suffering is entirely optional within this process. Suffering happens when we resist our own creative process, when we suddenly want to dictate to the Universe “how” our intentions “should be” made manifest. Instead, we can recognize that, while we may not know how it’s all going to come together in the end, everything is showing up to serve us in creating exactly what we want.
If we are clear in our intentions, every experience that shows up is perfect. If it were not perfect, it would simply not be able to show up! With this perspective, we can resist judging each experience as “good” or “bad” as we are having it. In the middle of transformation and change, we cannot possibly know how events serve our greater desired outcome. The most disastrous mishaps can turn out to be our greatest gifts. Seeming failures turn into exactly the lessons we need to create huge success. Loss creates space for what we truly want.
Everything is perfect.
Blessings,
Andrea

I love your take on drama and upheaval, Andrea. “Anything that needs to be healed, to be shifted will make itself known.” I see this clearly in my clients as we do healing work, but never before considered it on this broader scale regarding intention. It’s so absolutely true! Thanks for your wisdom.
Hmmm….your second paragraph is brilliant! I’m now understanding things at a bigger perspective. I’ve been wondering why some of my intents do not appear to be manifesting. Your post tells me that this is not the case, but that the events that follow my clear intents are really the ones that I need for vibrational shifts to take place!
Once again, you’re dead on Andrea!
I just experienced a major shift regarding money and my business and cleared out a “blockage” that I didn’t even realize I had.
During an internet research of something so totally unrelated to the subject, I got a subtle “hit” to search out the First Law of Alchemy! Now mind you, I had never been drawn to the subject – ever! But that initial search lead me to an article that blew my hair back! The author encouraged readers to visualize MONEY as a person, after explaining how money really is energy, etc.
Interestingly, I’ve seen that exercise before, but it didn’t resonate because in my opinion, it didn’t apply to me. But for some reason, this time, I felt COMPELLED to try it. So I did.
I had a “chat” with MONEY and he was a particularly loving energy by the way! Things came out that surprised me! Immediately, I felt a surge in energy – my usual sign that I’m experiencing a vibrational shift. My whole body *tingled* for nearly 30 minutes and I buzzed the entire weekend.
After that weekend, I sold more e-books within that week than I did the ENTIRE month!
My friend “Money” is now Coach Money and I’ve adopted the perspective that it is everywhere as it is spirit/energy. I also now treat Money as a friend to be respected and appreciated. The results so far have been amazing!
This is just another powerful example of my spiritual development and I CONSTANTLY give thanks to All That Is, my inner being and to the other nonphysical entities working on my behalf.
They are ALL such loving entities that should be appreciated.
You know, I think I knew this when I was younger and then got overwhelmed as I grew older and did not have time to sit and really gaze at it with the perspective of clarity about desires. This is a good reminder for me.
Thank you.
Sweet. You’re a peach, Teach.
I also knew this in my younger days that a wild ride happens before transformation. I have been seeing the results of the shifts I have been going through and try to keep in alignment. Your blog in my email is a breath of fresh air…I was walking around the house having ADD moments about what to do next …
Awesome post
There really are no reasons to worry (resist what is). When the mind releases the illusion of control and the need to assign arbitrary meaning to what occurs we shift to accepting and enjoying all – knowing that everything serves the highest good.
Excellent post!
“If we are clear in our intentions, every experience that shows up is perfect.”
This is the entire trick, to see with clarity. Awakening and release gives us clarity of intentions, and then blocks turn into flow.
Janet – Thank you! I always look at drama and upheaval as a sign that I’m on the right track! If things are rearranging themselves, it must be that brand-new good things are on their way.
Evelyn – Yup, EVERYTHING that shows up does so in response to your intention. It just may not look like what you expected!
Michelle – Congrats on your inner money shift!!! We really do come across the resources we need, when we need them … all based on what we intend to create in our lives.
Dreamsenshi – We forget so much when we think we know more, don’t we? Hee hee.
Michael – Awww, thanks!
Deb – Thank you! It does feel like a bit of a wild ride, doesn’t it? But that means it can also be really fun, if we’re just willing to let go and detach and MOVE. Not always easy!
Adrianne – Yup, no worries. Everything is perfect! Gosh, that makes life so much easier, doesn’t it?
Kaushik – Yes, clarity is definitely the key. I think commitment is another.
Thank you for all your comments!
Blessings,
Andrea
I’m new to your blog, Andrea, and this post jumped out to me.
Thanks for the reminder that suffering is optional in the transformation process. I need to remind myself, from time to time, to opt out of that choice.
Can’t wait to go back and read more posts now that I’ve discovered you.
