IAN- âListen, Seth, I am really sorry. All of this, the cameras, the locale, and meeting new people really had me overwhelmed. I was quite rude to you earlier and I am sorry. I should not have walked off. Can I start over?â
SETH- âCertainly! And I love all the art you have, does each one mean something?â
IAN- Yeah, well some do, others I just thought were really nice. I am working on finishing up the sleeve on my left arm. I think I would like something with a sunset, to remember this experience.â
SETH- âThatâs a great idea. I have wanted a tattoo myself for a while now. I just never really saw one that I felt I had to have. But maybe if I got one to remember this. It would mean something to me.â
IAN- âLife is full of experiences and adventures. You should always have some kind of reminder when you are doing something special. Especially something that may change your life.â
SETH- âI totally agree with you. Maybe you can help me design something? So I understand you are a detective. I am sure that is a very stressful job!â
IAN- âIt can be. But I do really enjoy my work. Sometimes, yeah it gets too much and I have to take a step back and remember that there a good things, and good people in the world. I mean, all I see is the bad on a daily basis most of the time. It is also hard not to bring my work home with me.â
SETH-Â âAnd that is why you are probably a good detective, and so young to be where you are already.â
IAN-Â âI certainly am focused. I do vision boards, ever heard of them?â Ian thought he would pursue the visualization techniques in a different way this time.
SETH-Â âNo I donât think so.â
IAN- âWhen I have a desire, or a dream, or something that I am working on personally, I do a vision board. As a detective we use pictures and other visuals to help us see where we are and where we need to go. I do the same thing in my personal life. I make vision boards. It keeps me on track with what I want to do. Helps me stay motivated and focused so I obtain what it is I want.â
SETH-Â âSo like pros and cons, but using visuals, and focusing on the pros?â
IAN- âYeah, and it really helps me. When I started with the police force, I started on one. I wanted to be a detective within the first five years, so I did the vision board and I accomplished it in four years. Now, I am working on being the youngest Chief of Police in the history of the force, and I have my vision board to help me see how to get there.â
SETH-Â âThat is amazing. I have a feeling you will be police chief much sooner rather than later!â
IAN-Â âI hope so!!!â
Seth was glad that Ian opened up to him and shared more of himself. He realized he was a very intuitive person, and focused. Both good traits to have in a partner... it was winding down, and Seth was getting really tired. It had been a full day.
