Keeping The conscious mind at Bay:

a.) Instead of writing your goal on the top left of the paper:
Come up with 3 unrelated goals or tasks (that have the same time line) and write each one on the back of 3 future mapping sheets.

b.) Place the papers so you can’t see the goal. Shuffle the papers and choose one.

c.) Start the future mapping process – When you have reached the step for Removing the sticky note, or unfolding the paper to see your goal. Turn the paper over and look at the goal. Now you can write it on the top left and decipher the code.

This is similar to the Genius code technique where you place questions in an envelope and reveling the question after your receive the code.

This keeps your conscious mind from trying to decipher the code while writing your story.
