This is from the great author, Napoleon Hill.

I’ll get right to it.

1. Fix in your mind, the exact desire you want. Be definite as to the amount. It’s not sufficient merely to say “I want plenty of money, I want to lose a bunch of weight”

2. Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for your desire. There is no such things as something for nothing

3. Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the desire. Too far may make you feel you have time to waste, too close and you’ll feel anxious to the commitment

4. Create the plan you will carry out, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not to put this plan into action

5. Form together a clear concise statement of the desire, the amount, the time limit for acquisition, what you intend to give in return, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to achieve it

6. Announce to yourself the statement twice daily, once before retiring at night, and once after rising in the morning. As you speak the statement, see and feel and believe yourself ALREADY in possession of the desire. Relax, the lease has been signed to your future self. Let go.
   

Conclusion; This method is to transmute desire into its physical equivalent. That burning desire, starts as a spark and gets fanned into a flame.
