"Before we can [pray] with focus, we have to become aware of a multitude of defined or undefined, conscious or subconscious desires.  We have to learn to bring them to our awareness, to analyze them, to categorize them, and to bring them in to order according to priorities.  When we do not do this, we will be condemned to remain, in our prayers, on a superficial level, or even on the level of formality, where there are no answers or there are only imagined answers."

F. Enzio Busche, "Unleashing the Dormant Spirit," BYU Devotional Speech, May 14, 1996
