Set Your Intention: Creating an Intention Board

Do you live a life of intention and purpose? With focused intention we can create our lives based on our interests, ideals, truth, and, ultimately our purpose for being here.

According to the Merriam - Webster Online Dictionary, Intention is "what one intends to do or bring about." With this in mind, an Intention Board can be the visual beacon necessary to guide us on our quest to live our true life.
