Wayne Dyer - Words of Wisdom: The Powe of Intention
Wayne Dyer believed that intention is one of the most powerful spiritual forces in the universe. In his book The Power of Intention, he explains that intention is not just something you do—it is an energy you connect with. It is the creative force of the universe itself, the energy of Source moving through you.
1. Intention Is a Field of Energy
To Dyer, intention isn’t a personal willpower statement like “I intend to lose weight” or “I intend to make money.” Instead, intention is a universal field of energy that we align with. He believed:
Everything in the universe emerges from intention.
Intention is creative, loving, and intelligent.
When we connect to intention, we co-create our lives with Source.
2. Intention Is About Alignment, Not Forcing
Dyer often said:
“You don’t get what you want. You get what you are.”
This means that intention is not about forcing outcomes through struggle. It’s about aligning your energy—your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs—with the outcome you desire. When you align with the energy of what you want, it begins moving toward you.
3. The Seven Faces of Intention
Wayne Dyer described intention as having seven qualities, which he called the “faces of intention”:
Face of Intention
Meaning
Creativity
You are a creator by nature
Kindness
Giving and compassion align you with Source
Love
Love is the highest frequency of intention
Beauty
Seeing beauty connects you to divine energy
Expansion
Life is always growing—so are you
Unlimited Abundance
There are no limits except those you create
Receptivity
Be open to receive guidance and blessings
These seven traits describe the nature of the universe—and by embodying them, we align with the power of intention.
4. Intention Works Through Energy
Dyer emphasized that we attract what matches our vibrational state. When we hold thoughts of gratitude, peace, and belief instead of fear and doubt, we magnetize what we desire. Intention is about feeling the outcome as already real.
“Act as if everything you desire is already here... and soon you will notice that you are acting on nothing else.”
5. Ego Blocks Intention
He taught that the ego (fear, doubt, separation) disconnects us from intention. To access the power of intention, we must move from ego to spirit, from trying to control life to co-creating with Source.
Wayne Dyer on Intention (Summary Style)
Intention is a spiritual energy available to everyone.
You don’t chase what you want—you attract it by becoming it.
Intention flows through love, gratitude, and service.
You must believe it before you can see it.
Intention works when you align with Source energy.
