Today’s post is short and to the point…
Cut the drama.
Just cut it.
Drama and/or negativity is like the ‘mega-weed’ in every transaction.
There are some people whose internal thermostat is set to drama.
Cut them. Fast. They may even be good people.
But the world has changed. Negativity and drama are overrated. Many people say they are not negative are. I have been there. Perhaps you have been as well.
No matter what, business has no time for drama and negativity. Yes be empathetic and if story time is encouraged by both parties, great. But get things done. When things aren’t getting done because of drama and or negativity, it just creates more unnecessary work.
One of the most exhausting things I have experienced is not delivering results due to others giving us excuses. Truly exhausting. The antidote? Cut the drama. Cut the excuses.
Recently hired a contractor to do a simple installation. After a little while, it was clear it was beyond their skillset. Bye bye. I am not sure they even watched a free youtube video on the subject beforehand. 😊
Bottom line. Cut dramatic people. Fire them from your life. Same for negative people. You won’t miss them. The world has changed with Covid-19. You don’t have time to waste as business is changing!
