less drama

This goal is pretty hard to quantify. Basically, it means not getting so upset about stuff, especially when it involves other people, and especially when it’s not my problem or I can’t control or change it.

I’ve had this goal on my list for a year now, and the concrete action I took was downloading Mary J. Blige’s song, “No More Drama”, and occasionally chanting “No drama, no drama” to myself when I was hyperventilating. It’s hard to quantify, but I’d definitely say I am reacting more appropriately in a lot of situations. The emotional rollercoaster has subsided to a gentle kiddy ride.
