Depends on the effect, in my opinion. one shot sigils intended to cause a change and then go away should be destroyed. Sigils for enduring effects should be kept, but not in an apparent place, I think. If you look at it constantly, you're constantly thinking "did it work yet?" or "Is it working like I want?" thoughts of this nature prevent the magick from working freely with your subconscious. Ultimately the point is to get it all past your conscious mind and into your subconscious, so it seems like having it around would interfere with that process.
that's my take.

Ok. This is just an example. If you wanted, for instance, a money sigil to work you would activate it then destroy it. However, if you were creating a love sigil for instance you would keep it around. Is this sort of what you're getting at?
