The Power of Intention

I am in an amazing vortex of creativity right now, sparked by watching Dr. Wayne Dyer’s The Power of Intention on PBS and reading Pema Chodron’s wonderful book: Comfortable with Uncertainty in the same day. Chodron’s book is a panacea for our troubled times and contains exercises and suggestions in short, three-page chunks for people of all faiths to quell fear and anxiety: practice of loving kindness towards others, reverence for all forms of life, constant prayer for the peace and happiness of all beings, etcetera. If you can at all catch Wayne Dyer’s presentation on PBS, please do so. It’s amazing and will change your life. And it fits right in with where I am going and what I coach on. (here’s a listing of the PBS stations showing this presentation)

My ideal client is someone who is searching for reconnection to Source and is actively helping others to do so. I coach the coaches, teachers and community leaders of Source-reconnection in whatever ways and methods they are using to do that. Dr. Dyer had a perfect quote: “We are all born geniuses, but the process of living de-geniuses us.” My purpose is to help people restore their inherent Genius and connection to Source that has been lost through the process of living this life. This purpose is summed up in a prayer that Dyer read during the PBS presentation. Though I am not Catholic nor yet Christian (in fact I don’t subscribe to any religious denomination) this prayer perfectly expresses, for me, my purpose in life. Perhaps for some of you too…

The Peace Prayer of Saint Francis

“O Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace!
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is discord, harmony.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sorrow, joy.

Oh Divine Master, grant that I may not
so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.”

Some will wish to change the personal pronouns as pleases them, but isn’t this beautiful? This is my mission in life and in the main, describes the journey of a Coach. If this is your mission too and you could use a hand figuring it all out and staying on track, you might benefit from coaching with me. If so, let’s talk.
