One of the techniques he offers is called the “10 Goal Method” which helps you better understand your true aspirations and helps your consciousness and subconscious mind to set the right attitude to achieve the goals. Brian Tracy encourages you to start each morning by intuitively writing down the ten goals that are most important to you. Continue this ritual every day, i.e., the next morning write down the 10 goals that are most important to you again without looking at the ones you wrote down the day before.
