B's Check-in...Phone call with Jackie

I had a phone call tonight with Jackie, the creator of the sales game. She definitely showed me some new angles. She suggested that I come up with a spiel that was me, that explained my relationship with Jerry and his work. What is in it for me...what is my motivation? Share my experience, my energy, my laughter. Make if fun.

So I'm working on MY new spiel...

"My friend Jerry Stocking lives in Northern Georgia. He has written books and leads workshops, helping people see that life is play, that everyone wants to play but we don't see it. As a matter of fact the one thing that I like about Jerry is that he only does what he wants. If he wants to sleep in, he does. If he wants to play for a day. He just plays.

His workshops are confrontational, like coming out and talking to strangers like yourself. But when I'm in the workshops and I can step back and see that life actually can be fun, I begin to laugh at myself and how serious I take life.

So one of the things I do is to go out and talk to strangers and show them one of the books he wrote...Laughing with Dog!! I have to step out of myself and take some risk to just walk up to strangers but I've met lots of wonderful people and after I do it, I feel different like I've opened up and shared myself with the people I meet. They seem to open up a little to.

That's what his books do for me and they can do it for you. This book Laughing with God sells for $10 and I request that you by it now."
