I would also have to work it a little further and think about what I would be doing in Paris while I was there. Am I painting on the spot, taking photos to bring back? Am I doing anything else while I am there? What am I wearing? How am I traveling? How long am I there? What is in my return suitcase? Am I packing a huge wallet in my pocket? What kind of ROI do I need on my cash outlay there? All of these considerations as you walk them through this filter create very tangible considerations. <BR/>Manolos v Payless...she spritz's with Eau des merveilles, finds the right ballerina slippers at Payless to waltz her way into the heart of a publisher after which she goes back for the Manolos ;-)Janice C.

She was a kick butt lady. <BR/><BR/>For me, sensory cues or guides work even stronger if I can make some kind of touchstone out of one.Janice C.

Of course, now I have to google "24 Faubourg" -- but I get the general concept. :-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250460757921368239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2598004650134967444.post-38587414511265676722008-07-01T10:41:00.000-07:002008-07-01T10:41:00.000-07:00Rambling is kind of like fishing...you cast out so...Rambling is kind of like fishing...you cast out some associated words on the water.... and sometimes you come up with a glorious feast. Rambling doesn't bother me.<BR/><BR/>Perception is huge. Pretty soon you could probably insert I breathe clean non stinky air in there too. :)<BR/><BR/>Sensory guides that are action laden are strong mojo in my world. Here's one of my secret most favorites: "Rich smells good. " Seriously. Niftiest, quickest little reminder touchstone for creating a sense of well being and confidence. Laugh all you want, but hand me my 24 Faubourg and I am ready to conquer the world...and it reminds me of what I am trying to create.Janice C.

But I like what you said here about perception, because it's very true and applies to so much. For example, I quit smoking in February, and I had no idea how hard it would be -- or how much of an adjustment it would be to begin to think of myself as a non-smoker. I have been telling myself "I don't smoke anymore" rather than "I'm no longer a smoker" -- so I guess it kind of goes along with what you said here.<BR/><BR/>Have I mentioned that I ramble? :-)<BR/><BR/>Good post.
