He went a little further. “Take a small piece of paper,” he said, “and write down whatever you would wish for, and keep that paper with you at all times. That paper is going to keep your subconscious riveted on that goal.” He explained to me that this was a powerful tool, and that I ought to use it with deliberate caution. “Don’t say, ‘I want this job or that job.’ Describe the qualities of the job or position you desire! Set your goals, let your subconscious take control, and the next thing you’ll know, the necessary tasks will present themselves.”
