First, you have to be interested enough to spend the time.\u00a0 This is true if any endeavor that pays back joy for discipline:\u00a0 drawing, playing guitar, taking pictures, dancing, singing, tennis, gardening.\u00a0 It has to engage you.\u00a0 Everyone has something that sometimes feels as though you\u2019re pushing a rock up a hill but still makes you happier than anything else does.\u00a0 If you haven\u2019t found it in escorting yet, it\u2019s time to start looking for something else.<\/p>\n
Then, routines help:\u00a0 you show up, and make the time spent be the requirement rather than how much you get done.\u00a0 You just have to be there, at the cocktail bar or restaurant table.\u00a0 But that means being there mentally as well as physically.\u00a0 When I\u2019m escorting, I don\u2019t check my phone unless in the restroom or on a break from my client (even when with clients who do so nonstop), so that my impatient brain can\u2019t search out distractions and avoid the pain of figuring out the next sentence of how to continue to appear happy and perky.\u00a0 I\u2019m being paid, and I am a better escort when I try to focus.<\/p>\n
Sometimes you get to close to your clients or your marketing or your policies; after a while, you can\u2019t see the goals you\u2019re chasing, and you need to take a fresh look.\u00a0 Step away; go do something else, take some time off from escorting, and come back when your brain is clearer and your mood is better.\u00a0 Even when with a client, feel free to take a walk or a shower, and get your mind out of a rut.\u00a0 Check in with the people you love, and if you\u2019re struggling too much, consider a change of client or a different form of escorting (there are lots of ways to work).<\/p>\n
Escorting will always be there, waiting when you\u2019re ready to jump back in.\u00a0 It\u2019s a pool into which you can always slip, and into which you can swim happily when things are done right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
