“If we don’t talk about it, then it doesn’t exist!”How many times have you done this and it makes it 10x worse?
Well, let’s address the elephant 🐘 in the room……
By addressing what needs to be spoke about actually helps you and everyone involved. It usually starts out as a small stone in your walkway that you “stumble” over! Otherwise, it becomes Mount Everest with a backpack full of bricks on your back!
I’m not saying it won’t be uncomfortable to talk about but, if it’s a stone in your pathway then it’s much more manageable to handle. Working on your throat chakra while taking a leap of courage will help you get through this stumble.
Now, if you decide to keep sweeping it under the carpet that mound will keep growing and growing. The stress, overwhelm, not wanting to cope with the issue just keeps mounting until you have Mount Everest in your living room along with the extra burdens that you’re carrying around in the backpack on your back everyday!
It might be uncomfortable, but speaking up or having a conversation about it early on will be so much easier than climbing that mountain.
When something small comes about then make it fun to bring it up. Have a code word that you have with that person to say to make light of a conversation that’s needed. That way you both are in a more relaxed frame of mind to discuss the issue at hand.
My friend and I would say… “The chicken 🐓 runs at midnight”. This made it fun hearted, but also that a conversation was needed.
After a few times, it made it so much easier to discuss important issues. It always started with a laugh and then an open mind from both sides.
The mountain is manageable to climb up, but it’s going to take a lot more effort and consistency!
Most important….. Changing the way issues/conversations are handled. To address it and speak up about them. That way you stumble and not like the contrast of having to climb Mount Everest.
So, speak up and have the conversation! Make it light hearted when needed to do so. Because by not saying anything it doesn’t go away or not exist, the exact opposite is true….. it just keeps mounting up until the mountain is built and then it has to be addressed. There’s no way around it, except climbing it and conquering the mountain or aka the elephant in the room.
So who’s with me? What word are you going to come up with to talk about the elephant 🐘 in the room?
