Spells generally don't have to be remembered to work. Chants help, though, if you do but it isn't necessary. Remembering them helps in that you you don't have to flip through a book or your BOS every time you need to say it.

when i first started out i was warned by other Pagans that you need to forget about the spell or it would fail. while i thought it was odd i never questioned it. today after a bunch of different spells trying to remember, forget, or just go about my day not trying to remember or forget, it really makes no difference. provided you actually work for your goal [meaning if you cast a job spell, fill out some applications, don't sit around waiting for a phone call] the spell will work itself out. don't stress over it, cast the spell, tell yourself it is working, then go out and do what you can. spells will set up opportunities, not do all the hard work for you, so dwelling on them may not be the best thing, an occasional reminder to calm your nerves never hurts.
