The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-Create Your World Your Way
Intention is generally viewed as a pit-bull kind of determination propelling one to succeed at all costs by never giving up on an inner picture. In this view, an attitude that combines hard work with an indefatigable drive toward excellence is the way to succeed. However, intention is viewed very differently in this book. Dr. Wayne W. Dyer has researched intention as a force in the universe that allows the act of creation to take place. This book explores intention—not as something you do—but as an energy you’re a part of. We’re all intended here through the invisible power of intention. This is the first book to look at intention as a field of energy that you can access to begin co-creating your life with the power of intention.
Part I deals with the principles of intention, offering true stories and examples on ways to make the connection. Dr. Dyer identifies the attributes of the all-creating universal mind of intention as creative, kind, loving, beautiful, expanding, endlessly abundant, and receptive, explaining the importance of emulating this source of creativity. In Part II, Dr. Dyer offers an intention guide with specific ways to apply the co-creating principles in daily life. Part III is an exhilarating description of Dr. Dyer’s vision of a world in harmony with the universal mind of intention.

About the author
Wayne W. Dyer
295 books3,447 followersWayne Walter Dyer was an American self-help author and a motivational speaker. Dyer earned a Bachelor’s degree in History and Philosophy, a Master’s degree in Psychology and an Ed.D. in Guidance and Counseling at Wayne State University in 1970. Early in his career, he worked as a high school guidance counselor, and went on to run a successful private therapy practice. He became a popular professor of counselor education at St. John's University, where he was approached by a literary agent to put his ideas into book form. The result was his first book, Your Erroneous Zones (1976), one of the best-selling books of all time, with an estimated 100 million copies sold. This launched Dyer's career as a motivational speaker and self-help author, during which he published 20 more best-selling books and produced a number of popular specials for PBS. Influenced by thinkers such as Abraham H. Maslow and Albert Ellis, Dyer's early work focused on psychological themes such as motivation, self actualization and assertiveness. By the 1990s, the focus of his work had shifted to spirituality. Inspired by Swami Muktananda and New Thought, he promoted themes such as the "power of intention," collaborated with alternative medicine advocate Deepak Chopra on a number of projects, and was a frequent guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show.

I took this book out from the library and ended up buying a copy of it so I could just have it and refer to it whenever I wanted to. I plan on reading it all over again here soon. It's fabulous! While I haven't read the "The Secret," from what I can gather from the reviews, this is pretty similar and is the "real stuff" without all the marketing fluff.

Although I think Wayne Dyer is discounted as a bit of a crackpot by some and he has clearly stretched out one idea and managed to turn it into several books/cds/seminars/manuals, I do find his thoughts helpful and even uplifting. I have to space him out in my reading/listening because he does get monotonous; however, I feel he has overall good intentions (pun intended)and I think I'll continue to be a follower.

Dr. Dyer sees intention as an inner awareness "that exists in the universe as an invisible force of energy." In this book he links intention to the creative power of the universe and suggests that it is within each one of us, the power to change the world.

“Good morning, This is God. I will be handling all of your problems today. I will not need your help, so have a miraculous day.”
“Say to yourself, ‘I’m here on purpose, I can accomplish anything I desire, and I do it by being in harmony with the all pervading creative force in the universe.’”
“One of the most effective means for transcending ordinary and moving into the realm of extraordinary is saying yes more frequently and eliminating no almost completely. I call it saying yes to life. Say yes to yourself, to your family, your children, your coworkers, and your business…”
~ Wayne Dyer from The Power of Intention
Wayne Dyer is one of my absolute favorite teachers. In fact, in my spiritual family tree he’s right there below Maslow in the spiritual dad spot (a position he shares with several peeps)!
Have you ever heard about the effects of kindness on your brain? Dyer shares the amazing science of kindness in The Power of Intention. It goes something like this:
Serotonin is the drug that makes you feel good. It’s what all the pharmaceutical companies pump into those wonderful little antidepressants. It’s also a little drug God decided to pump through our brains when we do things he/she/it likes. It’s kinda like a little reward for good behavior, ya know?
Here are some of my favorite Big Ideas:
1. Serotonin Overdose - Be kind and feel the hit!
2. Act “As If” - Your highest says “Hi!”
3. Coming to Oneself - The four steps of intention.
4. Namaste - I bow to the divine in you.
5. Say, “Yes!!” - Say it again! And again!
Relax. Embrace the Power of Intention. And have a miraculous day.

I love Dr. Dyer! I often find myself going back and listening to his audiobooks a second and 3rd time because they make me feel so much better. His message is inspirational and it's like listening to a loving father when he tells it. There's nothing I hate more than self help gurus that yell at you to get there message across, which to me, is contradictory. Dr. Dyer is NOTHING like that! You feel like you're being guided by a loving and caring friend who truly wants you to be your best self and live a life of happiness. I also appreciate that he's not "Christian" centric. Yes, he does quote from Jesus and the Bible, but not in a you-must-conform-to-my-religion way. He also quotes from Buddha and Krishna (but not in this book that I recall, in others he has), famous writers and thinkers, etc. His message is more of universal spirituality.
The book itself explains how to set your intentions, keep in tune with them and use them to achieve your goals. Here refers to several different ways of doing this, such as meditation, using positive thoughts and feelings on a daily basis, etc. and backs it up with personal stories as well as those stories of others.
I wish I could meet him!!!

I have always enjoyed Wayne Dyer's stuff even if he isn't sure if God is female or not.... Anyway, as he has gotten older his stuff has become more spiritual. He is definitely centered in a higher being and although he seems to be against organized religion I listen to his stuff knowing who my Source is and am grateful for his outspoken belief in God and reminders of the Power we have within and around us. I listened to it as a book on tape and it was definitely worth it.

Frank lent me this book to make use of the first few days of February I spent waiting in his garage for my car to be finished. Somewhat surprisingly, it has opened me up a little despite some of the over-the-top metaphysical discussions. As with all self-help books, you take away the parts you find meaningful to you and let the rest dispose of itself.
Upon finishing this book, I was amazed at the sort of impact it had on my inner-monologue. The main message is that you create your own reality with your thoughts and actions. While I already knew this, putting it into practice is a little trickier. Sometimes reading a whole book to confirm what you already know is what it takes to put ideas into action.
Like some other books I've read recently, The Power of Intention serves as a reminder to be privy to outside conditions and how they might affect our moods and well being. Eating too much food, overdoing it with caffeine and alcohol, letting loud TVs and music interrupt our peace, and associating with toxic people can have larger effects than we can imagine on how we treat others and view ourselves.
We have to train ourselves to be of the mindset the conditions we want are already present. There is an abundance of goodness in this world, and the only thing that keeps us from seeing it are the thoughts we create. I like that he points out in no uncertain terms that stress and anxiety don't "attack" us as we've been conditioned by society to believe, but we create those feelings from our own worries and self-doubt.
Sometimes we question ourselves, and that's normal, but overall mental strength is rooted in positivity. He mentions the possibility that sometimes you have to think about your unimportance to realize your value. You don't have to walk around with a stupid smile plastered on your face reciting Stuart Smalley 24/7 to be positive. The effort lies more in balancing the good and bad, then having the confidence to act with kindness and good intentions.
Speaking of the word for which the book is titled, the author goes into the meaning of "intention" quite a bit and in a way I didn't expect. He believes we are all connected to the Source, which I interpreted him to mean is sort of an underlying rhythm of the universe that has already decided that good things are in store for us. Contrary to the arguments of many, this goes hand-in-hand with free will.
At one point, he goes into the equation of how much energy there is in the world, and how certain people can combat the negative energy of tens, even hundreds, of thousands of people. To me, it just sounded like someone got off on an existential tear one late night, but if that's how some people want to make sense of the world, bully for them.
Overall, this book inspired some tremendously insightful and useful feelings in me as I start my business and enter a new phase of my life. Oftentimes, I would put this book down feeling like a million bucks, like I could do anything. Even better, the author actually outlines some good ways to actually do the "anything" that your heart so desires. At some point, I'm going to have to give this book back, but in the meantime, I plan to refer to it when needed, and I would consider buying more books from this author.

This really helped remind me how I have been behaving around a certain person and that I need to be more high energy than low energy. I really found this book very interesting.

This is one of those books you keep near your bedside for late night reading so you can fall asleep after cramming your mind with all these positive thoughts and affirmations, and feel-good thinking. That way, after your unconscious continues to play with the ideas to help you fashion the new you in your dreams, you can awaken the next morning in a very “born again” manner.
Perhaps for that reason, it’s also one of those books that might take you six months or more to read, as it’s a form of spiritual medicine perhaps best appreciated in small doses. Which is not to say you can’t sprint through the book, but it’s been my experience that Dwayne’s books are better for daily tune-ups, served up in small bite size chunks than read end to end in one sitting. But that’s just me.
I prefer to take one of the many brilliant thesis-like ideas in the book, presented in one or two paragraphs and meditate and reflect on that for a few days. But however you get through The Power of Intention, it’s time well spent.

When he says "Intention" I mentally substitute the word "Faith"; then I don't need to learn a whole new terminology. He is really speaking about concepts that have been around for millenium, but has packaged them in a different way.
At the same time I was listening to this, I was also listening to "Self-Esteem & Peak Performance" by Jack Canfield & found Canfield's work a lot more solid as something I can use.

I write this review as I reach page 84. This book is blowing me away. When I first started with it I thought that it was about setting the right intentions in life for one's actions and how "the universe" will give you back accordingly, much like the law of attraction. Although this is partly true, the book uses the term "the power of intention" to refer to God. The book is really about the fact that in life you have a willpower to choose to believe in One God or not (the book doesn't explicitly says that, but you'll read it between the lines), and once you made that choice, you should hand all of your life to God and rely on Him to set the course of your life (tawakkol). This is where true happiness is. It also discusses the ego, how to let go of it and how it hinders the connection with God.
At the end of each chapter, the book offers practical tips to apply its concepts.
This book is a treasure.

I have read this book three times! Now I am on the fourth. I love this book; in fact, it changed my life! It is all about working with the Holy Spirit, or the Light of Christ--as the author labels it: the Power of Intention. It's about working on a higher energy level, losing your own ego, and doing what you were intended to do, thereby finding peace and happiness and fulfillment without a huge struggle of massive self-discipline but more of a "let go and let God" effort. It isn't really different from what the scriptures and the prophets teach, but since it's coming from a different direction, it gave me a fresh and enlightened perspective on those things I wasn't really "getting" in my study of the gospel, so now I understand them much better.

The best days and years of my life are when I tell myself to play offense-to only go for what I want and to only concern myself with what I'm doing and thinking, without blame. So what a blessing to open such an affirming and conversational book that focuses on intention.
One of the beautiful things that Dyer addresses is the continental divide in thinking between 'this is my one and only life' and 'my spirit will live forever.' Without evidence either way, we get to choose! The later thought, which he stresses, is a much more comforting. It joins you to the spirit of loved ones whose physical form is no longer on earth, to those who are here and everyone in the future. It allows you to dream bigger because it takes away some of the pressure and short-term thinking of 'I need to see and do it all in the next decade... while I still have time!'
Another big takeaway is that I already have everything I need to be successful. Therefore, with energy and positivity, things will have a way of falling into place. In fact, the doors will open however much I choose and work to go forward. Knowing this means the world is on alert to someone who has a plan. That's a powerful thing. And it's important to note that this is different from always wanting more. Knowing that you're already on the right path connects you in a healthy way to the positive things that will happen at the end of the path of intention.
Dyer is easy to read because he talks about spirituality without proselytizing. Just like the view of the ocean or open land can relax you and make you feel like you have options or a way out of a difficult situation, realizing your universe within and how it connects to everyone not only takes away loneliness, but helps you see the big picture and the multiplying choices in your path. And Dyer doesn't leave anyone out of this equation-"If ANYONE is entitled to success and happiness, EVERYONE is, because everyone is always connected to intention." The universe is abundant-knowing what you want means that there's plenty for everyone. It's never been a zero-sum game.
He addresses how you can focus on your own happiness without wondering how others would interpret that-"When I speak to an audience of 500 people, there are 500 opinions of me in the room at the end.... I'm none of those opinions." Give yourself a chance to have creativity and ownership over your dreams.
This is one of the most generous books I've ever read. I'd recommend it to anyone. I'm on a good self-improvement book run and I've found this title to be the best mix of accessible and deep.
Simply put, the power of intention starts with being happy. That means that your desire to be happy-matched by the natural tendency of people in your life to want to see that in you-is always the first and last thing you focus on. One of my favorite quotes from the book is this: "You don't need a reason to be happy...your desire to be so is sufficient."

I have just finished The Power of Intention by Dr Wayne Dyer and I must admit that it has left me more confused than when I started. Firstly let me say that although I have come across quotes from him I have never read any of his book. I thought I would remedy that and this book with it’s brightly coloured pages caught my eye.
So where do I begin? The Power of Intention, also known as ‘the Source’ is an invisible power that we all.connected too. We can call on the power of intention by being positive and living as if we have already received what the source knows we are already entitled too. However if we are continually negative in our thoughts and action then the source will react to the way we are feeling. Dyer states that we can access the power of intention by using meditation and showing gratitude for what we have, these are two of the ways he mentions there are others in the book.
There were parts of this book I felt enraptured by but there were others that were repetitively boring, almost brain-washing it its repetitiveness. Things I agreed with were that when we are not physical we are spiritual, in other words after this life we don’t just disappear we change. That life is eternal. That there is a power greater than us and we can have access to it by the way we live our lives. Also that when those we knew here die and go to the other side they are still cheering us on – so to speak.
The biggest negative for me was it’s repetitiveness. As for the rest, maybe it’s just me but I think he would have done better to name The Source, which he doesn't. I do intend to try and get a friend to read and get a second opinion or may you have read it?

Don't recall much from this book. But I had this stuff written down:
"Every thought you have has an energy that will strengthen or weaken you."
"It is only discord acting within your own feelings that will ever deprive you of every good thing that life holds for you."
"The genius in you isn't seeking confirmation from others, but quiet space for its ideas to blossom. An uncomplicated life with fewer intrusions tolerated, in a simple setting, allows your creative genius to surface and express itself. The simplicity establishes a link to the power of intention and your genius will flourish."

"Intent is a force that exists in the Universe. When sorcerers (those who live of the Source) beckon intent, it comes to them and sets up the path for attainment, which means that sorcerers always accomplish what they set out to do"

There's no doubt Wayne Dyer is a giant of the genre. Though I hadn't heard of him until relatively recently, you can see his imprimatur on other spiritual and self-help writers of our time. Perhaps that was why - reading this book almost 20 years after publication - the writing felt less fresh than the insights. That said, the insights were abundant. If the point of a "self-help" book is challenge stale ways of thinking (and not just accept the word as gospel), then I'd say it accomplished that.

Би ЭГОг энэ төрлийн тайлбартайгаар хэзээ ч хүлээж авч байгаагүй гэдгээ хэлэх нь зөв байх. Бидний амьдрал хандах хандлага орчноо үнэлж буй байдал нь том зургаараа бидний амжилт, өсөлтийг тодорхойлж амьдралд хүссэн зүйлдээ хүрэхэд тусалдаг гэсэн зохиолчийн үгс "The Secret" шиг байсан өгсөн тайлбар нь үнэхээр л тийм байхдаа гэж бодогдохоор.. Хямарсан, урам зориг хэрэгтэй үед хамгийн зөв ном болох байх.

I enjoyed this book. It was very encouraging. Very positive. I am a realistic optimist and business owner. A lot of what Wayne Dyer says sounds spot on. However, some of it is a bit out there. In particular about health and healing. Although being aligned with the universe is good to say we can heal or attract diseases with fear is a bit much. If you gloss over some points like that you will read a book to pick you up a bit. The blue cover version illustrations were top notch which give it more enjoyment.

Delightful surprise; found this on Spotify and finished in one walk.
Author talks about more secrety secrets to living a good life, changing mindsets around scarcity, being truly good, and how being a positive chill dude can counter balance the negativity of thousands.

Most of my books reviews will have this disclaimer. Most of the books in my library are audiobooks. I prefer audiobooks especially on long trips. I feel that if the book is that bad at least my time was not a complete waste. With that said I have been following Dr. Dyer on PBS for years. I can always walk away with some good thought or quote. This book was organized but I sometimes loose interest because there is alot to grasp. He is long winded and takes alot of time to make his point. Dr. Dyer comes across as spiritual but tries to tone it down I guess for his worldly audience. One example of Christian thinking is the prayer of St. Francis and says it is a synonym of God. I also like how Dr. Dyer explains the 7 faces of intention. Creativity, Kindness, Love, Beauty, Expansion, Unlimited Abundance and Receptivity. For example he says "What else can the creator be than Beauty. Beautiful thoughts build a beautiful soul and Beauty is always present even when others see non Beauty." I wouldn't classify Dr. Dyer as New Age because he is close to the mainstream but he does introduce other religions and likes to quote past religious leaders and authors. I would recommend the paper book because I found myself taking lots of notes.

هذه اول قراءاتي للكاتب واين داير. بكتابه العزيمه الذي حدد لها اربع خطوات أولهاالانضباط *الحكمه* الحب ثم الامتثال
المحتوى جميل ومفيد يعطيك دفعه ايجابيه وطاقه هائله لتقبل نفسك ومحيطك ويحفزك باعتبار نفسك جزء من الكون و ان وجودك ليس محض صدفه ما ذكرني كثيرآ بقول يكرره الشيخ الفاضل محمد النابلسي كثيرا في دروسه)(وتحسب أنك جرم صغير وفيك انطوى العالم الأكبر 🌏) يتكلم عن الوفرة وعن أهمية افكارنا برسم منحى حياتنا ويركز على فكره الحياه مابعد الموت التي نؤمن بها وهي محور عقيدة ديننا الإسلامي💚
لا أعلم هل هو تدخل من قلم المترجم ام فعلا الكاتب يركز على الإيمان بالله الذي أسماه احيانا بالمصدر وعلى ان تحب لأخيك ما تحب لنفسك والتسامح والتواضع والامتنان والدعاء والإيمان ان الله الكريم لا يقدر لك الا الخير والكثير من المعاني الايمانيه البحته.
الكتاب ذكرني جدآ بكتاب السر.
واظنه يميل لان يكون كتاب بعلم الطاقه اكثر من التنميه البشريه.
كما غلب عليه التكرار والمماطله برايي وممكن ان يجدها البعض توكيدات محبيه.
استوقفني الفصل التاسع الذي تحدث به عن الأقارب و الفصل ١٣ حين تكلم عن الصحه والمرض
اشفي واشفى ركز به على أفكارنا وجذبنا للصحه او المرض بتركيزنا عليه
بما أسماه مصطلح أنماط الاجتذاب
ما اضمنه لك انك ستكون باخر صفحات الكتاب اكثر انفتاحا واشراقا وإيجابية لن تطوي صفحاته على نفس الأفكار التي بدأت معها أول صفحه منه
🌸 فقط افتح قلبك و تقبل عالم واير و ماوراء العزيمه 📖وشكراً
