eHow advice to look for a lost objects

I love this article which i found in the eHow... Something to be shared even if you are not Catholic...

•Step 1
Take a deep breath and try to lessen your sense of urgency.

•Step 2
Unfocus your eyes slightly and rather than looking intently from spot to spot, sweep the suspected area with your vision like a floodlight, not focusing on any single area.

•Step 3
Within a minute or so (when you master the art of seeing without looking), the object will appear unless it's hidden beneath or behind something else.

•Step 4
Ask Saint Anthony, the patron saint of lost objects in Catholic folklore, to locate the lost object for you. You needn't be Catholic or even believe in the saint at all. What makes this one work is the act of asking for help, no matter how ridiculous it might seem.

•Step 5
After you ask the saint, forget about the lost object and your request. This method allows the mind to unconsciously remind itself of the location of the object. Just like a computer, all data is present in the mind, just misfiled or scrambled.

•Step 6
When you find the lost treasure, be sure to thank the saint out loud. I always look up and say, "Thanks, St. Anthony." Superstitious? Maybe. But it pays to be polite. Sort of like paying a bill to the celestial lost and found agency. Warning: St. Anthony isn't so good at located modern electronics or objects that are illegal or immoral (in his eyes). Aren't you glad you found this eHow article? No need for thanks however.
