What’s your drama?!



The cost of drama in life. Ditching drama in life is a skillset just like being happy in life is a skillset. Happiness is a choice and suffering is optional. Some people think this is impossible but we have to remember that, engagement without accountability creates entitlement and happiness its not correlated to your circumstances its correlated to the amount of accountability you take for your circumstances.

How do you recapture time and sanity? Better yet let me ask you this, what are the sources of drama in your life?

Ego! The narrator in your head that you believe, who distorts your view on reality. How often does that voice seem to be too loud or over talkative? we get used to it and so ego keeps tugging away at us. Ego dictates our life and it doesn’t have to. Ego centered living causes more drama in life than we think.

So how do we start to live drama free, how can we recapture our life? Learn to go into self before reflecting out to others. No drama means more room for happiness! Some of the ways we can live drama free is by practicing mindfulness.
The practice of maintaining a non-judgmental state of heightened or complete awareness of one’s thoughts emotions or experience on a moment-to-moment basis. Basically being in the moment and not reacting to life. Mindfulness is letting go of taking things for granted. it may also mean to return to the present moment. Mindfulness is a self regulation of attention with an attitude of curiosity, openness, and acceptance. To be mindful is to observe all the self-centered fears and desires that arise within each moment and that are responsible for creating your imagined self-concept which you are bringing into every situation causing you to react mindlessly. When we practice being mindful the ego isn’t a burden.
Go for a walk in nature. Mediation is another great practice to silence the ego. Gratitude is another great gift to self. Most importantly don’t take yourself to seriously. Once you get into the routine of practicing mindfulness, gratitude and meditation you will notice that you have left plenty of room for happiness. Like I said it’s a skill set no different then your job.

Stay amazing!

Its a wonderful Life

  My favorite Christmas movie is Its a wonderful life, a classic black and white movie i watched with my grandmother as a child. Lessons in this movie are powerful reminders… It’s not just about us. Other lives matter. We are better, richer, because of other people. When we hurt, we hurt others. When we are in pain, we tend to feel we are suffering alone, but this is never the case. When someone we love hurts – we hurt. We can’t hide our pain from people we love. They know. They may not know how to help or even how to express their concern – at least not in a way we will receive it – but they know – and care. We need community. We really do need people in our life. We never realize this more than when we are in need. (I can’t imagine my life personally without the church.) There is power in cooperation. We can do great things when we work together. I love this quote by Aimee Semple McPherson, “With God, I can do great things! But with God and you, and the people who you can interest, b

The Heros Journey

Campbell’s most famous book,  The Hero with a Thousand Faces , describes a formula that he called “The Hero’s Journey”. Comparing the Hero’s Journey with the Spiritual Path 1. The Call to Adventure : The protagonist begins in the ordinary world, which could be a village or city in any part of the planet and in any century. He or she then receives a call to adventure. A doorway appears, inviting one to enter an unknown mystical world of strange powers and events, of danger and treasure. The hero who accepts the call must face difficult tasks and trials on the journey to reach the goal. For a spiritualist, the invitation to take initiation is like that. It comes to people at different times in their lives. Often in the past, spiritual initiation was very difficult to obtain―one had to undergo severe tests. Today it is easy; anyone with a sincere desire can learn the basics. However, the tests which follow initiation today are just as hard as in the past. 2. Refusal of the Call : A reluct
