Avoid “invented problems and drama”
It is human nature to need variety in life. So, knowing that, you can either choose your variety in terms of calculated challenges or you can do nothing. Do nothing and your subconscious mind will take over and invent things to make your life interesting. I’m not kidding.
Your mind will invent problems and drama to give variety to your life and make it interesting. And sometimes it rises to the level of crises. Having many problems and crises in your life can also make you feel important.
But, there’s a catch: it’s just a lot of ado for nothing. The wheels are spinning, but you’re not getting anywhere. No actual progress. Just a bunch of drama. And it’s draining and distracting to you and to others around you.
What do you think? Have you seen people that “invent problems and drama”? Have you seen yourself do it?
