When I first started quitting drinking, I tried to go back to my old habit of having a beer or two every night.
Every time, some force seemed to help me not to do that.
One time, in a state of weakness, I went out to buy a pack of beer and forgot to take the money.
I'm the kind of person who always carries cash with me!
After returning home a while later, I gathered my money and reconsidered whether or not I should go out to buy beer of my own free will.
Then, out of intention, I chose to just stay home.
And I noticed that during the first few weeks of abstinence, these little incidents were recurring periodically.

In all my work in life, I have used the power of imagination rather than willpower.
For example, I see myself already finished writing this book.
When I 'think from the end', I act as if everything I want to create is already complete.
My credo is “Imagine myself existing.
Then I will exist.”
And I always carry this image with me.
I don't have a strong will to finish a book.
To write a book by will means that I believe that the body called Wayne Dyer does all of this.
My imagination, on the other hand, has no physical boundaries and no name like Wayne Dyer.
Imagination is a copy of my own intention, exactly like my intention.
Imagination gives me what I need, it makes me sit here and write, it guides the pen in my hand and fills the paper.
I, Wayne Dyer, am not making this book a reality.
The imagination in my mind is so clear and concrete that it becomes reality.

If there is something around you that you don't like, try not to think about it.
It may sound paradoxical, but in this match game you are trying to harmonize with the spirit of creation.
You must train your imagination (the universal mind that overflows within you) to transform what you do not want into what you do want.
If you spend mental energy complaining to anyone about something, you are attracting more of that thing into your life like a magnet.
Only you can overcome that obstacle.
Because you are the one who put that obstacle in the way of your intention.

No matter how much you achieve or gain, your ego will continue to insist that it is not enough.
You will find yourself constantly struggling, thereby permanently destroying your chances of reaching your goals.
But in fact, you have already reached your goal.
So, it is your choice how you spend your present life.
Ironically, when you stop demanding, more of the things you want seem to come into your life.
When you let go of the desire to have more, it becomes easier to give to others.
Because we realize that we can find contentment and peace with little.

The realm of intention understands the message, "Please send me more money," as you seeing yourself as lacking.
But the source has no concept of lack.
The source doesn't even know what it means to be short of money.
So I will answer you like this.
“I will make it so that you need more money.
Because you think of yourself that way, and I feel the same way as you.
“I will give you more of what you do not want and do not have.” You, ruled by your ego, will react by saying, ‘My desire is being denied!’
But the truth is that the universal source knows only abundance and generosity.
So your intention is 'I have enough money.
So if you say, 'I will let enough money flow to me,' then the Universal Source will make money flow to you.

I know I'm not alone as I sit here writing this.
I know that the right person will mysteriously appear to provide me with the encouragement and resources I need.
I have complete trust in this process and remain in harmony with my Source.
The phone rings.
Someone has a tape they think I might like.
Two weeks ago it wouldn't have made sense to me, but now I'm listening to that tape while I work out, and it gives me what I need.
I meet some people while I'm walking and talk to them.
They tell me about books they're sure I'll like.
I write down the book title and look it up.
And I get what I really need --- pp.335-336

Whatever life gives them, they (those connected to intention) say, “Thank you.”
“What can I learn and how can I grow by receiving this?” he says.
They refuse to evaluate anyone or anything sent by the Source.
And with this ever-expanding attitude, you ultimately align yourself with Source Energy and open the door to life to receive all that Source willingly offers.
They are open doors, never closing doors to possibilities.
In this way, they fully embrace the abundance that is always and constantly flowing.

This attitude shown by the connectors is why they seem to live very lucky lives.
