But! Not the perspective of ‘a physical body, based on chronological-age’ version of Human Child. The necessary Context is this: “Someone with a Mission to create a mechanism with which to share Their Own Unique Perspective with the Universe… and lacking almost any & all of the Conceptual data – and relevant professional Experience AKA expertise – with which to manifest this IRL result.” So, the Bottom Line? I’m totally Winging It.
And in full disclosure, I’m still Connecting with Support People who express a ‘willingness to help’ Me. The most impactful of this group? Christian. Who I just spoke to yesterday loll.
Now, Christian didn’t give Me the initial data for the air-quotes ‘Design Team’ option. That was Joey, probably about a month ago. And it doesn’t mean Joey was lacking in anything ‘Salesman, can Close the Deal’ skills per se. It just means that I Myself wasn’t ready. “Timing is Everything” – and it wasn’t time yet, for Me, budgetarily – or even ‘visualization’ – speaking.
But what Christian did that ‘got’ to Me? He spoke My SB’s language better… what He said ‘resonated’ more intensely for Me. He painted a picture for Me, which helped Me visualize My desired result. He validated My Own feelings. [N: AKA “WordPress is hard!” i.e. not as easy as Everyone makes it out to be]
I believe, in this first/singular/ initial Connection – that one, several-minutes phone call discussion – that Christian ‘got’ Me. That Christian ‘understood’ what I was trying to do… and Christian, having the tools & Conceptual data, was trying to help Me get there. [N: ‘getting Me’ makes Christian My Soulmate FYI]
Sure, TECH could say, “Well, this is Christian’s job – to sell this service!” but that completely ignores PASSION’s contribution. [N: again, proof that TECH has an ‘Interpersonal Relationships’ blind spot… but that’s a whole other Story for another day]
Christian made Me feel better about this whole pursuit. Christian helped Me believe that what I wanted to manifest is possible… with enough “drive” & something else I can’t recall loll. Christian made Me ‘see’ Myself, standing on that Olympic podium with a gold medal around My neck – and I believed I could do it. I believed I could win.
And fast-forward to Current Day? I obviously succeeded. Yayy, Me! As proven by the fact that You, DR, are now reading this Story – My very first one – posted on My newly birthed website.
But right now, as I write this Story? My website is still Conceptual, in My Own mind. Next order of business? TECH – who manages My budget – creatively figures out how to bounce the dollars around so I can pay for the Design Team for one month. [N: I’m hoping I can get a functional product completed in that one month so I can start posting Stories – i.e. I’ll be ‘Winging It’ at that Future point] If I need more than one month, I’ll figure out those details later… that part of the Story hasn’t been written yet, so no sense in spinning My wheels until I get there & take a look around, see what exactly I need to do next.
. . .
[N: Working with any Salesperson is like dating. I will buy the product from this specific Human Being if 1) I agree that this product will improve My Own Life in some way, solve a problem, fill an unMet Need, etc. etc. 2) I can carve out enough resources AKA $$ to acquire the thing, and 3) how strongly I Connect with this Other Person]
If PASSION is in the room? If PASSION ‘falls in Love’? Imma buy what You are trying to sell to Me, DR.

Conner’s Comments: Christian almost triggered Me when He said – and I’m paraphrasing – that if I don’t ‘sh#t on the pot’ then it’s not a Priority for Me to make My website happen. But I know this is a sales, ‘always try to close’ thing… I mean, I Myself just quit a Sales job IRL so I know all about it. I don’t take it personally. I know Christian is only trying to help Me by doing His job. [N: and IMO? doing Sales is not an easy job!] But I know – because I have access to the inside of My head and Christian does not – I have to Prioritize the $$ that funds My Own Life. I’ll get to My goal, I just need to juggle more than one ball in the air at a time.
