The paper intends to propose a new view on the way in which the intention (as intentionality, in a phenomenological sense) is formed. In this end, the entire chain from will to action is described, but the analysis is focused only on one part of that chain: from will to intention. Essentially, the study asserts the intention is an unconscious process and, even more, this process is of Darwinist-type, i.e. based on a kind of “natural selection” between some “stories” (called plausible corroborations – PCs). This sui generis “competition” leads to selection of a dominant PC, under the influence of the situational framework (another concept the study introduces in order to explain the mechanism of the “natural selection” of the dominant PC). The situational framework generates some geodesics which act on the PCs in competition as attractors.
