Are you addicted to excitement, chaos, and uncertainty? Are you so used to dysfunction that your natural response is to always be in crisis mode? Maybe you’ve gravitated to a work environment that was like that or your family life is constantly filled with problem after problem?
I remember growing up in chaos and confusion. To adapt, I did everything I could to be on hyper-alert, ready to adapt, adjust, and be flexible. But you can’t live that way all the time. Being in disaster mode is great if you’re in a disaster, but not every day.
