Today’s Motivation WHAT IS THE QUALITY OF YOUR INTENT?

This quote has got to either get you up out of your chair or
back into it pondering, pondering.

“What is the quality of your intent?

Certain people have a way of saying things that shake us at
the core. Even when the words do not seem harsh or offensive,
the impact is shattering. What we could be experiencing is the
intent behind the words. When we intend to do good, we do.
When we intend to do harm, it happens. What each of us must
come to realize is that our intent always comes through. We can-
not sugarcoat the feelings in our heart of hearts. The emotion is
the energy that motivates. We cannot ignore what we really want
to create. We should be honest and do it the way we feel it. What
we owe to ourselves and everyone around is to examine the
reasons of our true intent.

My intent will be evident in the results.”

~Thurgood Marshall (1908-1993)
