Don't Let Your Mind be a Drama Queen

You had a great weekend. Good vibes, good company, lots of laughs. But then there was this one annoying thing – it happened once, and then it happened again, and suddenly, all that you could think of was: "enough, what am I even doing here? I can’t stand that anymore!"


Or perhaps it’s Monday. You walk out of a meeting where 99% went well. But one awkward moment, one slightly challenging comment – and boom, your brain latches on: "That was terrible."

Why does this happen? Because our brains are wired to cling to the negative. It’s like having a personal editor who only highlights the worst parts of the story. And if you are not careful, you start believing that this is the whole story.


But – the full picture is always there. The fun, the wins, the great conversations. It’s just a matter of focus and reframing.


So next time your brain starts its drama, try this:

Imagine a friend telling the same story – would it sound as bad?

Zoom out. If this was a movie, would that one thing really be the entire plot?

Remind yourself: your mind is a storyteller – and you get to direct the narrative.


So… what’s the real story you want to tell yourself today?
