Intent Matters

Tuesday, August 8th, 2006

‘We can restore the power of intent through a return to the true self, or self-actualization. People who attain self-actualization reestablish their connectedness to the non-local mind. They have no desire to manipulate and control others. They are independent of criticism and also of flattery. They feel beneath no one, but they also feel superior to no one. They are in touch with the internal reference point that is their soul, and not their ego. Anxiety is no longer an issue, because anxiety comes from the ego’s need to protect itself. And that anxiety is what interferes with the spontaneity of intent. Intent is the mechanics through which spirit transforms itself in to material reality.’ – Deepak Chopra

We believe intent matters. We are not perfect at aligning ourselves the way Deepak describes above, but we try.

Intent matters because what we intend comes to pass. If we intend a universe of abundance, we will see one. If we intend to create a community in which anyone can participate and share in the rewards, we will.

The universe conspires for us. It’s dropping us hints all the time. Everyday it weaves seemingly non-connected coincidences and random happenings together into a tapestry of choice and opportunity. It wants us to succeed.

Can you think of a time in your life when an opportunity or coincidence occurred that at the time seemed random or lucky, yet on reflection realize it reflected your hearts deepest desires and aspirations?

There is no such thing as luck – only intent.

Act as though karma exists

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

Some people don’t believe in karma. We do.

When you give back to the universe, with no expectation of favor, you receive the same in return. The universe reflects what we project.

If you project love, you will receive love.
If you do favors for others, you will receive them.

Believing karma exists isn’t good solely for altruistic reasons – it’s also good for business. Taking care of customers and doing right for the community rewards your business in infinite ways. A strong community leads to a strong business.

Whether you believe in karma or not is a personal choice.
We hope our actions and intentions reflect that we do.

People are inherently trustworthy

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

You get what you project.

When building our community, we need to show our intent towards the kind of a community we want to live in. Do we want an Orwellian community full of exhaustive checks and balances where big brother is looking over everyone’s shoulders? Or do we want a community that believes people are inherently trustworthy, and will do the right thing? For us, the answer is obvious.

Acting as if people are trustworthy is our way projecting good positive karma back into the community.
