Writing Personal Wedding Vows Amplifies Your Intentions

I want you to get so clear about the dream you have of your life together that when you write your own personal wedding or commitment vows you will be so inspired by the dream of your relationship that you will be willing to invest some attention on installing that dream as your life operating system.

Here’s what happens: When you put your attention on your ‘intention’ it is automatically amplified. It grows, is exposed, it becomes real. You can touch it, taste it, feel it, and experience it.

Put your attention on something that isn’t working and you get more of it. Because the laws of the Universe respond to the energy of your attention. It has shape and color and acts like a magnet.

If you are creating a magnet you want it to bring you what you really, really want!

The fact that 50% of marriages fail within 4 years proves to me that the couple . . .

1. Did not have a clear dream of their life together.

2. Did not take time to articulate or talk it out and write it down.

3. If they did have a dream they talked about, they did not take the steps necessary to keep it alive.

The major opinion is that marriage is hard work. I am telling you that if you keep the vision alive and well your marriage doesn’t have to be hard work.

I don’t want to tell you you won’t have some challenges. But your marriage does not have to be hard work. We are a generation that is so busy we do not have time to make things hard. It does take some attention, though.

You have to keep your ‘eyes on the prize,’ or on the dream you have for your life together.

The statistics show that 50% of 1st marriages end within 4 years. Something happened so that when those challenges showed up that was where the attention went and it grew bigger and bigger and bigger.

I want you to have such a clear intention that your troubles that you do encounter are so small they are overshadowed by the dream you have of your life together.

Here is what you must do. . .

Take a little time together to articulate the dream you have for your life and the life of your marriage. Talk about important aspects like sex and money, and children, and in-laws, and careers, and houses,and cars, and play time and philanthropy. This is the hardest part. Yet is essential.

Then write your vows and pledge or promise to do whatever it is you need to do to be living that dream.

Keep reading those vows over and over and over and over after the ceremony and like the energizer bunny, your marriage will keep going and going and going.

Because by reading those vows you will be putting your attention on your intention, which is to have a fabulous, intimate, amazing life together.

When you keep your dream alive and in feeling mode you begin to see with new eyes. You literally notice things, people, ideas, and experiences you would have never noticed before. They are all aspects of your imaginary dream in ‘living color.’

It’s not any different than buying something and then seeing it everywhere around you! It was there all along only your eyes were not opened to see it.

You open your life and your mind to ’see’ your dream by paying attention.

Attention, attention, attention.

Review, review, review.

Now, here’s another secret. When you are aware that you are ‘living the dream’ say “Thank you.”

What you are doing is anchoring in your experience and saying to the Universe that “You can bring me more of that!”
