Where he formerly thought of keeping his tools sharp, he should now let them grow dull; surfaces that formerly were lubricated now should be sanded; normally diligent, he should now be lazy and careless; and so on.

Wo er früher daran dachte, seine Werkzeuge scharf zu halten, sollte er sie jetzt stumpf werden lassen; Oberflächen, die früher geschmiert wurden, sollten jetzt geschmirgelt werden; normalerweise fleißig, sollte er jetzt faul und nachlässig sein; und so weiter.

Once he is encouraged to think backwards about himself and the objects of his everyday life, the saboteur will see many opportunities in his immediate environment which cannot possibly be seen from a distance.

Sobald er dazu ermutigt wird, rückwärts über sich selbst und die Gegenstände seines täglichen Lebens nachzudenken, wird der Saboteur viele Möglichkeiten in seiner unmittelbaren Umgebung sehen, die aus der Ferne unmöglich zu erkennen sind.

A state of mind should be encouraged that anything can be sabotaged.

On the one hand, there is the man who is not technically trained and employed.

This man needs specific suggestions as to what he can and should destroy as well as details regarding the tools by means of which destruction is accomplished.

Dieser Mann benötigt spezifische Vorschläge, was er zerstören kann und soll, sowie Einzelheiten zu den Werkzeugen, mit denen die Zerstörung durchgeführt wird.

Presumably this man would be able to devise methods of simple sabotage which would be appropriate to his own facilities.

However, this man needs to be stimulated to re-orient his thinking in the direction of destruction.

Allerdings muss dieser Mann dazu angeregt werden, sein Denken in Richtung Zerstörung neu auszurichten.

Specific examples, which need not be from his own field, should accomplish this.

Konkrete Beispiele, die nicht unbedingt aus seinem eigenen Bereich stammen müssen, sollten dies bewirken.
