You Can't Hide From Drama
You can look at someone's life and think they have it all, only to find out they are suffering from drama. Before the advances in technology it was easy to hide the internal drama. Now, not so much. We are all on "Big Brother."
It takes a lot of energy to hide from drama and it eventually catches up with you. Look at the recent examples in the news, from celebrities, sports heroes and political figures. People who seemed to have it all, stars like Michael Jackson and Anna Nichol Smith, to sports figures like Tiger Woods, to high profile political figures like Bill Clinton. No matter what your position in life, how much others love and admire you, or how much you have achieved outwardly, Drama can ruin your life and your business. Eventually you must come face to face with your drama.
Drama is the Leak in Your Boat
It may start out as a slow leak at first, barely noticeable. You avoid it. You bail it out. Then it gets bigger and bigger.
You can paddle as fast as you want,(working longer and harder) but you aren’t going to get to your magical island as long as water keeps filling up your boat.
You can deny the leak, meditate, pray, focus on the positive or hire a coach to improve your rowing abilities, but until you admit you have a leak you are at the mercy of the hole in your boat. You can blame the boat maker but that doesn't close the hole in the boat
You can take massive action (LEVERAGE) and still nothing works. Neither a motor, a sail, the wind or a team of rowers can help you get to your island as long as you have a hole in your boat! Until you identify and plug the hole you will struggle. Drama keeps you from reaching your potential. The big question you must ask yourself is this:
Where are the "Drama Signs" in Your Life?
Drama in your business makes you feel like you are shoveling coal in the boiler room instead of navigating the ship.The signs are exhaustion, low morale, power struggles, absenteeism and of course, financial problems.
Drama in your personal life shows up in physical and emotional ways: bickering with your spouse, out of control kids with no boundaries, stress, overwhelm and feeling stuck in the middle, like you can't give enough of yourself to make everyone else happy.
There is good news: Drama is an indicator that transformation is taking place. Change and reinvention always bring opportunity for spiritual and transformational growth personally and professionally.
Drama in any area of life impacts the other areas, and that is why using the Stop Your Drama Methodology to improve one area of your life will also significantly impact the other areas of your life.
Whether your drama is more personal in nature or more professional, The 8 Steps of the Stop Your Drama Methodology will help you navigate through change and reinvent any area of your life that is no longer working. So register for the mini-lesson to get a glimpse of the Stop Your Drama Methodology, also known as The 8 Steps of Empowerment.
Shoveling Coal in the Boiler Room or Captain of the Ship?
Who is in charge? You or your overwhelm? You or your negative employees? You or your unruly kids? You or your worry? You or your monkey mind? You or your doubts? You or your addiction to approval? It's all DRAMA.
Where Would You Be Without Your Drama?
It doesn’t matter how outwardly successful you are if you are secretly ruled by your obsessions, addictions, and drama.
In Business, there is a learning curve, but once you learn the rules of the game and become competent, business is not all that difficult. In fact, where you are weak, you can always hire someone else to fill in the gaps. You can hire people to do your sales and marketing. You can hire someone to handle your human resources issues. Even if you fail as a business, you can hire an attorney to clean up the mess.
The rest of life is much the same way. If you make enough money or build the right kinds of relationships you can get others to do for you what you don’t want to do, whether it’s raising your children, mowing your yard or fixing your meals. There is one thing no one can do for you, and that is your inner work, that determines your real success.
