Here, in WYSIWYG Tales, you will find tales about people who have used WYSIWYG Wizardry and how that has helped them. In The Wizard of Oz movie, Dorothy and her companions had, within themselves, the traits they sought but could not see. The Wizard found ways to help them see those things. There was no real magic in what he did. He just created situations in which their actions made it easy for them to visualize the fact that those traits had always been there. All he did was help them see. People call me the WYSIWYG Wizard because that's the kind of thing I do and want to tell you about. The people I work with do many different types of things. They build things, they write things, and they change things. Sometimes they work alone and sometimes they work with other people to provide services or complete projects. And, like the seekers in the movie, they cannot always see clearly what they do. They do well most of the time but they also have problems, make mistakes, and have crises. They would very much like to avoid all of those difficulties but they can't see how to do that. You, your friends, and your co-workers may be like that also. You may be skipping down your own yellow brick road, doing what you do, not fully seeing and understanding what you do and how you fit in all that. A little bit of WYSIWYG wizardry can help you. No magic is required. All you need are some simple, down-to-earth, practical visualization techniques to help you see, better understand, and improve what you do and the way you do it.
