Send us Fan MailThere are always two things happening in our minds: #1: The facts of our situation: This is something that could be proven in a court of law. It is void of emotion and just staring the facts. Facts are neutral. #2: Our story about the facts/drama: This is what we are choosing to make the facts mean. These stories or dramas are usually emotionally charged. For example: Fact: I have X amount in my bank account. Drama: I will never own a home!Fact: My Partner hasn't responded to my text yet. Drama: They don't love me anymore"Fact: I have a deadline for a work project. Drama: I'm going to fail!Fact: My friend said they are feeling overwhelmed Drama: It is my job to manage their overwhelm. When we focus on the drama rather than the math, it can cloud our judgment. Take a step back, slow it down, and see what shifting your story could create. If you're unable to create a positive story, see if you can create a more neutral one. Need help rewriting your narrative?
