Awareness through Intention: Inward Motivated Action

Health & Wellness, Future, Wealth & Abundance, Education & Learning, Relationships, Fame & Recognition

Using patterns to cultivate and increase awareness of one’s inner origins that motivate them through the functions has led to discovering differences in the inspiration from an inside focus and that of externally driven ones. The inner inspired motivation for action deepens the sense of feeling fullness and strength that is balanced mentally, emotionally and physically with confidence, and the energy of the outwardly focused inspiration seems to leave hunger, dissatisfaction and a lack of quality in achievements. One is satisfying and fulfilling while the other is empty, and gloomy usually leaving a deep loneliness or a sense of being lost. As one aligns with their inner origins life is no longer boring, dull and conflicted. There is no need to feed the same addictions that seem to come hand in hand with the emptiness in those not tapped into their own core needs. This picture reflects a quality I have begun to promote with self-care. The techniques I have been focusing on are a feminine quality. For my masculine energies, the same self-care actions can be taken with less focus on the sensuality I suggest for feminine energies. Another successful focus of attention is mindfully integrating goals designed to create new habits. The integrative process or nature of these steps is for retraining the brain and creating new behaviours. It gently turns habits one takes for granted and shifts into new actions. In my personal experience, this is the pattern of transformation.

Some examples are turning a lack of courage into courageousness, boredom into being alive with life, failure into opportunities and steps for building success, etc. It shifts from the fails that go hand in hand with trying to compete or please others into self-actualizing through origins from the inside. After all, it’s an inside job. I was once told in a dark night of the soul experience that I was born alone and would die alone. Hum……..That’s when I realized that even with people I felt alone. It was a huge moment of acceptance and a moment of transformation. People do not speak a language of connection. The connection can only be attained from connection to inner origins. This is the shift away from being a hungry ghost or vampire. lol My perspective only and for learning purposes…….

In August of 2023 I shared a post on the numerology for 2024 & reading it today found it interesting to the times in 2024…..

Future: Awareness through Intention

2024 is a number 8

Here are a few points that are relevant to this year’s experience. So much so that I thought I would bring attention to them. So let’s get started.

  • The number 8 in numerology reflectsย a cycle of balance as in the infinity symbol. It contains both spirituality and the materialistic states of being.
  • The number 8 is associated with the stability between the material and immaterial worlds.

I wrote:

For this writer, coach and mentor, the numerology of 2024 reflects the fame and recognition area of the Nine Life Areas grid. I expect that the ego will be a bigger influence in 2025 as the spiritual and material worlds balance. There may be an opportunity in this energy to balance out the dominant outside ego focus with a more correct inner use of ego. Incorrect use of ego creates conflict and disconnection that can be destructive to self and others. Correct use of ego creates self-confidence and power in one’s world that contributes to self and others productively and abundantly. This writer believes that oneโ€™s connection with values is the correct use of ego.

The life area of fame and recognition can be constructive or destructive.

When I read this I thought how relevant it was to the major events we have experienced this year that are still happening in the world ego-related.

At the beginning of September, I shared that 2025 is a number 9 in numerology in a post. I suggest 9 brings prosperity, happiness, and good luck in life. With this in mind, I wrote:

For this writer, coach, and mentor 2025 numerology reflects the wealth area of the Nine Life Areas grid. The wealth corner of the nine life areas reflects abundance for this writer. Abundance is a state of being reflecting qualities of character and life balance. It is the shift of transitioning into a lifestyle of living a life through gratitude and appreciation. Number nine reflects a completion and a new beginning, not an ending. Itโ€™s a transformative time from greed into one of living in abundance. An abundant life is one with equal giving and receiving.

In late September ’24 I posted this suggestion on my social media pages:

This suggestion is to reflect on this before the current calendar New Moon on October 2nd this Full Moon Phase is associated with clearing clutter in preparation for considering goals for 2025. Instead of cleaning the house or the office, clear the mind.

This perspective has been a focus of attention in the integrative studies in learning groups and sessions. It is a topic that will be featured more in-depth through the mentoring programs @ Inside Awareness and in conversations and articles.

Be the Master Builder of your 2020 experience

Integrate your intentions with ease & enjoy the process of creating a new & successfulย living patternย 

Tap into your inner creativity to Imprintย your inner longings for 2020

Any meaningful change begins when you notice what you would like to do differently in a non-judging way.ย  ย Creativity through the right brain activities of art, crafts, writing, music and walking in nature can turn ones illusive longing into obvious statements before goal planning even begins.ย  Leading through a right brain activity can tap into all bodies of function creating a balanced approach.ย ย Activating goals through integration of all bodies of human function can create a living force and increase the will to achieve them.ย  The functioning human bodies includes the physical, cultural, perceptual, emotional and mental bodies.

It’s time to harness the mental thinking mind and give it guidance to support a fuller wholesome experience.ย  More on how the a dominant focus on the mental mind can influence self-judgement below.


Resolution statements taps only into your mental body.ย  This mental body has been culturally educated to respond to the world through the following reactions:

What this means for you for becoming the change you want to be

Resolution statements activated from the left-brain may focus on short term goals and not lead to last change that integrates lifestyle.ย  Including aspects of right brain activities can lead to the integration of lifestyle change leading to long term change.ย  ย With a focus only on the mental body it generally becomes its own driving force of single mindedness that lacks balance and support of all functioning systems.ย  It can be controlling and eventually may become a source of depression.

Why?ย  Change declarations from thought function may only be influenced by outside stimulus, I/you should and self-image.ย  Long lasting and life-enriching change comes from the inside and goes beyond self-image and stimulus.ย  Meaningful change grows through a system of open learning, not through a closed system of I/you should and should nots.

How to begin integrating change verses forcing change through concepts

ย Becoming the Master Builder of 2020

The steps of turning Intentions into Goals begins with a vision of 2020.ย  It is then followed by noticing the four walls of experience created by our seasons; fall, winter, spring and summer.ย  The intention of the dream created in the year’s imagery is then easily turned into a doable guided pattern that incorporates universal values, characteristics and qualities in a novel and uncluttered way,ย  integrating new habits through the months and seasons.ย  The ease of learning is integrated through the experience following a guided pattern.ย  Awareness through intention and action.

Turning intentions into doable goals in 5 easy, integrative steps

There are 5 fun and easy steps to activating the integration of intention and action in a meaningful way using a novel pattern to stimulate right and left brain functions with activities that can create life-enriching experiences and relationships.ย  ย As each step can be life-changing and integrative commit to spend time on each step before moving to the next one.ย  Direction suggestions will be given for each step.

Step #1 –ย The Foundation

Book time with yourself to focus your attention through your creative nature.ย  This step can be a private experience in your own space or shared with a friend group or spent privately with a mentor or coach.ย  It will take up to two hours to lay out the image with additional time to gather materials beforehand.ย  This initial step will be stimulating.ย  Let it digest for a minimum of three days before moving to step two.

What is stopping you from moving to a life of more joy?

The thinker

  • If you hesitate as you believe you are not creative, go beyond this thought and gather together some magazines,glue, scissors and some paper.ย  ย Create a collage mixing pictures and words that speak to you.
  • If you tell yourself you are dominantly a thinker, go beyond this thought and gather up some of your favorite magazines, glue, scissors and some paper.ย  Create a collage using words and include pictures that speak to you.
  • If you cannot devote this time toย  be adventuresome and connect toย  yourself and growth, pause and make a commitment and do it anyhow.ย  This is as important as eating, sleeping, and socializing, etc.ย  Perhaps even more important as it is the point of clarity and balance inย  our natures.ย  It is invaluable learning and guidance that comes fromย  within.

    • Listening inside is a place one can go in nature easily when slowing down to create the space for it. Listening from inside can give you your best guidance.ย  Use this time to become quiet and let your inner desires be heard.ย  Remember to make notes afterwards so this experience isn’t fleeting.

Now is a good time to reflect on your goals for the coming year

Labyrinth goal journey

If you haven’t yet, this long weekend is a great time to consider your coming year.ย  It’s the last few days before Nov’s full moon.ย 

  • Waiting until Dec’s you are competing with the chaos of Dec’s holiday events.
  • Waiting until the end of the year means you miss the best integration cycle (in sync with nature) for planting your intentions.
Seeds in fall, rest/germination in winter, germination/growth in spring, manifestation in summer
