Intent to Connect is the willful, open, desire to "connect" with "something more." Developing and encouraging an "Intent to Connect" is an important aspect of all authentic Connection Practices.

Notes

Intent to connect is a critical component of most forms of Connection. It is the intent to connect that occurs when an individual reaches "rock bottom" that is the catalyst for a Connection Event.

Stressful events, conflict, trauma, and "hitting rock bottom" have long been associated with the onset of a Connection Event, thus leading some to suggest that it is stress, conflict, trauma, etc., are precursors. Also associated with these circumstances, however, is a sudden reversal of intent. Thus Bill Wilson, an atheist and critic of God, at the end of his alcoholic rope, suddenly make an appeal (expressed a heartful intent) for assistance and connection. His intent immediately precipitated a connection (see here for his connection event). I suspect that if a student examines the historical record of people whose "events" occurred during periods of stress, conflict, etc., one will find intent, though overlooked, a common feature.
