TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I usually use ritual not as a procrastination, but as a focus; a preparatory step.

I heard that Faust has 99% accuracy firing his sigil from across the street.

What are they supposed to do? 

Generally a sigil is a graphic representation of a goal. So your goal might be "I am going to be self-employed within the year", you create a sigil (using whatever technique works for you) to represent or encode that goal. Then you put it away for awhile with all your other sigils. Since you made it, the theory claims... the image and the goal are tied together in your head... they are linked.

So later, when you 'charge' the sigil you are trying to embed the 'goal' deep into your subconscious where you hope it affects your BIP/Paths/Choices/Programming.

Charging the sigil basically involves focusing on the image (the goal) and then doing something that distracts your conscious thinking away from the goal.

Or at least that's the theory as held by most Chaos Magicians.
So let me know if I'm missing the point. But aren't there some very direct things you can do to achieve your goals, like, work towards them?

I don't want to come over all greyface, but if I were a bank manager and had two people seeing me who wanted financing towards starting their own business/becoming self employed.. I'm probably going to pick the person who has done a shitload of market research and has a solid business plan with realistic revenue projections, over the guy who shows up clenching a soggy doodle he has fapped over.

I mean, even if you make the commitment to dedicate say 15 minutes a day to working towards your goal.. won't that also embed itself into your consciousness? I guess as someone fighting against a lifetime habit of procrastination and slack, I don't have much sympathy for excuses and not just getting things done - and this description of sigils hits those warning bells for me.

Yep, Magic sin;t something you do instead of mundane effort, it is something you do in addition to mundane effort.

Also, dedicated 15 minutes a day toward your task, especcially if it is at a set time each day and you are very strict about it, is an employment of magical techniques already.
You're a special case, Babylon.  You are offensive even when you don't post.

You DID NOT just use the word "mundane".
