Now, we live in a digital age, where we are given the message that if we are to be successful, we are each to have our own "brand," which we market - our own dynamic, memorable style and message.
Yesterday, a friend told me: "It's okay to be boring."
If you have a period of low drama in your life, that may mean you are doing something right.
If you have steady, harmonious relationships, that may mean you are doing something right.
Doing meaningful, effective work in the world does not need to be accompanied by drama, glam, and glitz.
Steadiness and consistency have their own attractiveness.
It's not your responsibility to entertain everyone. Sometimes, entertainment is not what people need most.
Sometimes entertainment is just distraction from deeper issues.
Today, take the pressure off yourself to be dynamic, interesting, and entertaining. Notice the quiet gifts of being boring.
