... in your mind, a wanderer nears the river. You welcome them to this river of transformation.
You sit with them near the shore.
There's a tea-pot that boils nearby. To first make the tea boil, past pain and hardship must be sacrificed to it. As a career transformation guide, you reveal their previous pains. Everything that's holding them back All past attempts. The lack they experience in their current role, and the fear that comes from not having a job at all.
Carefully, your conversation stokes the fire until the tea-pot begings fuming. <break time='3s'/ At that point, you show them a broken mirror. In the mirror they see their pain reflected back to them.
It's time to paint the picture towards a new possibility. "You CAN cross this river"
You point to the other side of the river, there is a golden mirror there. "What would it feel like to have a golden mirror"
It becomes evident they need to reach the other side.
You can feel their desire for the mirror growing.
"Crossing is not easy"
"There are strong currents" You caution them.
"We CAN surpass them, but not everyone is ready. A strong determination is needed"
You are the expert guide they need. You know the currents very well: money, procrastination, timing, skepticism
Your confidence fills them with assurance. You've done this endless numbers of times ... you guide them towards the first steps, with confidence and ease
As you guide them through the river, you always make sure to isolate the current that's holding them back.
Then you use the current to re-direct. The current is what is keeping them on the broken mirror side of the river.
You use the currents to fuel their advancement, you know this is good for them and they will benefit greatly.
A clock and a telescope are your allies. With them, the currents lose power. With the clock, you show them what's at stake. With the telescope, a future that could be theirs
You build power within the person, certainty to cross the river.
As they near the new shore, where you are already standing, you reach your hand down, offering the services they will need. You use them to gently pull them up.
You've helped another person transition, live a better, fuller life.
Time passes by, and you see yourself doing this over and over again. Each new person that comes through, although conditions are different, the core of it is the same. You remain perfect and flawless in your execution
Yet you remain steady, able to help anyone that comes cross over the river.
You are calm, an expert, confident, on their side, hoping the best for them, and guiding them towards acheiving it.
Every single time.
You are a transformation guide, the best one there is.
Now, you lay still in the river. The currents building deep relaxation within you once again.
