I had a client hit me up with ye ole "check is in the mail" speech; i.e. "I know I need to pay you, but could you do such and such?" Now once before this happened, but because what he'd requested was due to an oversight on my part, I had no issues playing clean-up. No real skin off my nuts.
That was then, this is now. When I got the same sort of message, I said to myself "okay...feedback loop. must neutralize." I spent a good two seconds laughing over the fact that surely he must think my initials are BBTF, and then promptly deleted the missive. I suppose he'll figure it out when he doesn't see a bit of changes on his site. Heh.
Despite my stern and reportedly imposing demeanor, I'm really a nice girl. Those who have eyes will see it; but those who don't, inevitably try to work me.
*le sigh*
Used to be the quickest distance between essence me and Shadow Lisa was to attempt manipulation. I would give much emotional charge to the situation and feel pressed to let the perpetrator know that I was certainly not the one. These days I just don't have the urge. Why subvert good energy into some bullshit? Making some big speech would only be my ego feeling the need to beat its chest.
Boooring.
Anyhoo. I'm learning that once you put some shit out of sight, it really is out of mind. BUT first you must transmute. So peoples, the next time someone tries you, clear out your emotional inbox by having a good chuckle over old school maneuvering.
I mean...it's not like you're one of those sleepytime folks that give over power by actually getting angry....
right?!??!
