- One has absolute freedom of choice when choosing director. Remember that Directors do not have to be clergy. There is no compulsion whatsoever when choosing a director.
- Give priority, when choosing, to competence. While this might be hard to find out quickly, Thornton's point is that your choice of Director should be not be influenced by convenience (place/age/etc.)
- If you find difficulty/sloth/sin, etc. the cause of any particular reticence or embarrassment to a particular priest, then something is wrong. Direction depends on openness, so if you find somethings hard to discuss with your Director, then something within the relationship is not right.
- Make the move yourself. Like so many things in life, one must make the first move to contact and ask for Direction. The Director should never ask to direct (a sure sign of an incompetent Director).
