“and now, potter, will you simply write? ” asks the faeries, as they sit cross-armed along the top of the computer monitor.

Okay, onward and upward.  Let’s come up with a magical plan around the housework. 

(faeries look at me with squinty eyes and a slight shake of the head)

Oh. ya. We’ve made that happen a number of times already. oops. forgot.

now back to cake?

Faeries, I thought you were nuts when you told me to retire… (readers, see previous post)  But out of the magical blue, I had this feeling of being retired.  WEll,  really I did leave  the regular workforce and start my own business a few years back. About this; I have said to others, “When I used to work” then I laugh at myself because I do work! 

But the feeling I got was such a shift:  Like “I’m retired, I do what I want.”  It’s a right brain shift therefore pretty darn hard to articulate the feeling. I just magically knew I can do what I want, and remove the don’t wants ie:  The left brainy things that say, ‘what can you do today to keep yourself out there?”   And what I don’t want is to spend time fussing over “what’s the best options for marketing.”  

And so on my first day of retirement, I curled up in the evening and visualized:   magical people, my name getting out there without me fussing over any of it, my workbooks just simply finding their way to people who are looking for exactly that kind of magic.. you know, that sort of thing.

ya, we know that sort of thing!!

and lo and behold, LOOK what happened the very next two days!

wasn’t that FUN for us to watch you – especially the laughing!  and the rolling your eyes at yourself, saying “silly Janet, this is what you teach, but you forgot to apply it to marketing!”

Well, we do all have a left brain.. and mine was being rather controlling on the marketing, wasn’t it?

actually, no, we don’t ALL have a left brain.  we’re not quite sure why you mortals have one.  without it, you could fly.

mmm, follow up on that comment will have to wait for the book to be published.  SO close to being done.  Any publishers interested out there?

uh, potter.. get your head out of the left…

OH YA!  I’ll visualize that too!

Anyway…  a gathering of magical people happened, amazing people from around the world contacted me for coaching, work(play!)books sold especially well, and the NEW YORK TIMES called me for an INTERVIEW!

Celebrating! Celebrating! Celebrating my ‘retirement”!!!  

let’s go eat cake!

Yes, lets.

~~~~~~~~~~~~
ps. you can check out the other version of this event.. details, techniques, and the faeries tend not to say much on the other blog.  Which is neither good nor bad.. it just is. Faeries be where faeries want to be!

Faeries, faeries, magical beings,

Do ya think you could take over the marketing?  I LOVE what I do.. but the shmarketing, aaggghh.  Little brain is always thinking “keep yourself out there”  and it’s always rebelling against the recommended marketing techniques.  Why the heck would I announce to people “This is your problem. I can fix it this way.”   Soo anti-me and you.  (I rebelled on my website – don’t you love it?) but either way, I’d rather my thoughts be with you, with magical clients, with the books, with the paint, with the kids.

Potter shmotter, coach smoach, writer shmiter,

You’ve done the work. Retire.

peq90a8is8e8;a;mf e a   Oh, and dance.

Postscript: WOW, check out what happened as a result  in the next post!!

This is a creative, magical and inspiring video.  And I’d like to publicly thank my faerie godmother for turning into a pumpkin into a coach..

feeling blue.. what shall you do?

Hey little preciouses. 

Hey, potter.

Thanks for hanging around.  Do you like my new car?

Its great… loved the forests we went to .  enough of that.  Keep working on the book.

Okay.

hey.

sorry, haven’t been here for awhile.   It’s okay though right?, since we published a book and all.

Okay, okay.. not as many faeries cruising the trees in it as we’d planned. Maybe you coulda quit breaking yourselves.

any person reading this particular post will really think we are nuts.

Dear Faeries,

What should I do when I need to get away from the computer? It’s such a benefit to me, but sometimes I think I should get away more?

Love, Is my face square yet?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Squarehead,

“NO, don’t get away from it! We love the new book!  We are so proud of you, potter, for getting it DONE!  Keep going.. the novel is nearly done, too!”

“shhh, I’m pretending to be someone else so you can share your other wordly wisdom and enchanting perspectives! ” whispers potter. (that’s what faeries call Janet)

“Oh.”  faeries answer.

“so, what would you tell the world about too much time at the computer?”

“Okay, fine.  Dear Squarehead, go play outside.”  and they add very quickly, “and take the computer with you and write your novel.”

“Hmmph” says Potter  but the coach in her adds:  Readers, computers need naps. Go here to see my sure cure for computer overindulgence.  http://musingalong.wordpress.com/2009/04/15/computers-need-naps-too/
