Using Intention to Manifest

By Ron Knowles

Back when I was in the U.S.Navy with the rank of Petty Officer 3rd Class we finished up our tour as station ship in Yokosuka, Japan and sailed back to our home port of San Diego, CA. It was when we arrived back in the States that I told some of my shipmates of my intention to return and work in Japan. I must say that nearly all of them thought I was a fool and laughed at me. They and certainly I had no real idea as to how the power of intention could result in the manifestation of my desire.

Prior to my ship's departure from Japan I informed my Japanese friends of my intentions to return as well. Although they were polite about it I could see that they thought I was a dreamer and that I was deluding myself. Be that as it may I stuck to my guns and nourished my intention to return.

After separating out of the Navy I constantly visualized myself back in Japan with my friends going to familiar places and seeing clearly in my mind the sights, sounds and smells of Yokohama where I planned on living. Within a year I was actually back there. My daily visualizing was manifested in the form of an apartment and work; a testimony to the power of intention.

During my twelve year residency in Japan I met and married my Japanese wife. She bore me two beautiful AmerAsian children who are the love of my life. As wonderful as my life was I was still ignorant why the things in my life had come to pass. The power of intention had manifested my situation but I was to stay oblivious to its workings for some time to come.

The Manifestation of a New Job

Years later after bringing my family back to the States I found myself in a position of wanting to get a better job because the one I had was proving to be inadequate. Anyway, I picked up a copy of the local Yellow Pages and began thumbing through it. I just knew I could find a job that would meet my family's needs.

I saw a display ad for an overhead door company and couldnt for the life of me understand what an overhead door was. So I called the company and asked the guy who answered the phone what one was. He explained that it was a roll-up door like on a garage or commercial building. Then he asked me why I would call and ask such a question.

I told him that the Yellow Pages was about as good as the Employment Office and that it was my intention to land a job by that Friday. Impressed by my attitude and determination he invited me to visit him at his office that day. Anyway, I went there and we had a friendly interview.

I noticed and liked the working uniforms of everyone and visualized myself wearing the same. By this time I really wanted a job there and my intention to work there must have been really powerful because the boss created a position for me and had me start right away.

I didnt really understand how I got the job so fast. I didnt understand the power of intention and how it changes lives. But it worked! As it turns out, much has been written about the power of intention and how it is so closely related to the law of attraction. I had been using it again without that knowledge.

Negative thinkers I've known have said my life is a concoction of coincidences. Fortunately I have learned the importance of the existence and the need for utilizing the power of intention and the law of attraction which has had and continues to have a great impact on my life. I read books on this subject, listen to CDs and watch videos continuously.

WHAT ARE MY FUTURE INTENTIONS?

I'm going to continue working my Internet business from my northern Panama home and making it even more successful. I also intend to write more and help others attain their online goals. I'll enjoy the visits of friends and family and the sweet presence of my granddaughter who I love to play with. I definitely intend to be a good friend to people, an improved father to my kids and a better person overall.
