Attention and Intention
Inherent in every intention and desire is the mechanics for its fulfillment. Intention and desire in the field of pure potentiality have infinite organizing power.
And when we introduce an intention in the fertile ground of pure potentiality, we put this infinite organizing power to work for us.
This conscious change is brought about by the two qualities inherent in consciousness: attention and intention. Attention energizes, and intention transforms. The quality of intention on the object of attention will orchestrate an infinity of space-time events to bring about the outcome intended.

Fulfill Your Desire for a Healthy Home
It is a great relief to establish a healthy home. Two-thirds of us cite healthy air and water as an extremely important local priority, second only to safety from crime, according Roper Starch Worldwide. Yet polls consistently show a significant gap between wanting a healthy home and knowing how to create it.
The guideline for establishing a healthy home is quite simple: Use only materials that have been around so long, and been used by people without harm for so long, that they are "generally regarded as safe" (GRAS for short), otherwise they would have long-since been abandoned.
