Dr. Wayne Dyer: The Power of Intention

America’s best-selling author and speaker on transformational wisdom, Dr. Wayne Dyer, presents a new definition of the concept of “intention” and a new method to connect to one’s infinite potential. In The Power of Intention, Dr. Dyer transforms conventional thinking about how things happen in life into an exhilarating exploration of the power of intention and a profound understanding of how each person possesses the power to co-create the life he or she desires. The program is based on his book, The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-Create Your World Your Way.

The Power of Intention guides viewers from an examination of the usual approach to intention — which is a self-achievement orientation based to a great extent on the ego — to an exploration of intention as seen through Dr. Dyer’s fresh interpretation of the scientific and metaphysical philosophies of great thinkers.

Intention, explains Dr. Dyer, is better understood as a field of energy to which every person is connected and from which everyone is able to harness potential. It is not a question of whether or not people are connected to the field of intention, because that connection already exists. The questions he poses to his audience are: How capable are you of keeping your “link” to the field open, and are you ready for what awaits you?

Some of the world’s greatest thinkers — Nobel physicist Max Planck and Albert Einstein, for example — and the writings of the Bhagavad Gita and the Bible speak of a force that “intends” things into the material world and animates all life. Planck, in accepting the Nobel Prize, called it “the matrix of all matter.” Dr. Dyer introduces the audience to these philosophies and explains that the keys are in understanding the qualities of this remarkable field of energy and learning to be in rapport with this universal force.

Dr. Dyer illustrates his points by offering personal anecdotes and signature stories. His message is clear: “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”

To help viewers understand what the field of intention looks like, Dr. Dyer takes the audience on a journey through the seven faces of intention, each paired with an empowering statement:

Creativity – I intend to live my life on purpose.

Kindness – I intend to be at peace with everyone in my life, including my relatives.

Love – I intend to respect myself.

Beauty – I intend to live a stress-free life.

Expansiveness – I intend to express the genius that I am.

Abundance – I intend to feel successful and attract abundance.

Receptivity – I intend to attract ideal people and relationships.

The program ends with “The Dyer Dozen for Connecting to Intention” — a recap of 12 key steps to open the link to the field of intention.
