Goodness, I don't know. That was just kind of stream of consciousness writing there.
It all depends on what you're referring to by specific - as I pointed out, there are two definitions floating around in this thread. I definitely think our intentions should be formed as specifically as possible. For me, the more I define something, the easier I'm able to visualize it and get into the feeling of it. I don't think it needs to be very specific to begin with, but I think over time, the ideal will develop.
Should we intend Jane Smith, the winning lottery ticket, or that specific house on that corner two blocks down the street? I don't think so. For some reason this seems like tempting God. I don't want to say
always as someone will come up with an exception as soon as I do, and I don't want to say that it
has to be scarcity. But I think you have to ask yourself, what is the intention behind the intention - and that is what to shoot for.
I would have to say this though, that I think any intention of scarcity will likely bring more scarcity.

Well, obviously I would think yes. But I don't see any reason you couldn't intend the million after you've attained the $100k.
But lets make the argument a little harder.
Two people are intending $1,000,000. The first person decides to buy a cheap tiny condo in the ghetto, renovate it, rent it out or flip it for some profit. Once they've bought the condo, they've got a budget, a plan and have a target amount of profit they expect. That's pretty specific - this condo needs to sell for this amount of money by this date. The second person buys a lottery ticket. They think about how much they'd like to get. They figure the pot would need to grow at least a certain amount, and even larger if it's going to be split and still expect to get a certain amount out of it. How different is it really?
