“Want” and “desire” consist of wanting “to focus attention, or give thought toward a subject, while at the same time experiencing positive emotion.

Avoid TV shows that deal with negative experiences like crime or illness.

Dreams might provide some insight into the psyche, but you’re not in the process of “creating” while you’re asleep, the book says.
