About Creating Drama & Getting Caught – A Chart

Remember a couple of weeks back I talked about people creating drama, usually for their own validation.

There is another interesting observation that comes along with creating drama for the sake of creating drama.

Individuals, that create drama out of nothing usually do so without ever accepting any level of responsibility for that drama.

They will deny, point fingers, accuse others to the point that they will get physical in order to deflect the blame off of themselves even when they are caught red-handed.

These self-centered individuals will play the role of victim at the drop of a hat. These individuals cannot be reasoned with as they have no clue or idea on how to accept responsibility for their actions.

Be very careful when dealing with this type of toxicity as they can quickly turn on you. It will ultimately turn back to them being the victim making easier for them to NOT accept responsibility. They will never even dream about holding themselves accountable as they truly believe they have done nothing wrong and everyone is out to get them.

Proceed with caution when encountering this species.

Thank You & Until Next Week,

High Quality Decision Making – A Bell Curve

We make decisions every day. Turn right, turn left. Drive fast, drive slowly. Say Yes or say no. No matter what we choose the decisions we make also have outcomes that are either expected or unexpected. They are right or they are wrong. However, once made and acted on a decision and its outcome can never be changed.

It is for that reason that every decision, no matter how mundane, must be made with above average quality. What does Above Average Quality mean? It means that with every decision we make those decisions with more than just a passing glance or quick overview. It must be done with a deeper understanding of the question and anticipating the various outcomes.

Making High Quality decisions does not guarantee that positive outcomes will occur. What it does guarantee is that you thought things through and in anticipating the possible outcomes you were prepared to deal with those unexpected issues.
The higher the quality decisions you make will make your life Above Average.

By continually, working on improving your decision-making skills you will maintain making high quality decisions. Stop or fail altogether, then you will get exactly what you deserve.

Folks, I am not kidding when I ask if you want a better life and respond by saying you do. Then the only way to get that “BETTER LIFE” is by doing what it takes and having NO choice but to put in the work. Contrary to popular belief there are no short cuts to SUCCESS and a “BETTER LIFE”.

Thank you,

About Creating Drama – A Chart

Drama! Who doesn’t like drama? Everyone likes some drama. Everyone really likes drama when it involves other people. Sometimes, we even like a little drama in our own lives. It keeps life interesting.

What most people do NOT like is hearing about drama all the time. Seriously, that kind of nonsense is not healthy. It is not healthy in the sense that no one needs so much drama in their lives. It is not healthy in that the more drama is constantly being shared the more people will want to stop hearing about it.

They will also equate the individual sharing the drama of others as the kind of individual that is sharing their own life to others (drama or not). The scary part is that when no drama is available, these individuals will create drama only to validate their own existence.

Great Individuals, Great Leaders do not become Great because of the drama they create, especially when there is none to create.

Those individuals with the low standards and boundaries are the first ones to look at when drama is being created out of thin air. Through whatever misguided sense of having to make themselves the center of attention by sharing or creating any kind of drama are NOT a leader anyone wants to follow. Ultimately, they will become the individuals that no one will want to have around.

Again, you create what you make and you get what you give.

Until Next Week,
