Dr. Stephen LesavichEPISODE 233
I was recently in Los Angles, California, to see a music concert at the Troubadour. A friend of mine, a Hollywood actress, joined me for the concert at Troubadour.
It was a concert including featuring Robby Krieger of the Doors and Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top.
Like most great venues, it has rules, and like most rules, they only matter when they suddenly apply to you. As we passed through security, her purse was searched and a forbidden item was discovered: chewing gum.
The security team informed her that chewing gum was not allowed inside. She was asked to give it up.
She could throw it away and leave it with security and pick it up after the concert.
She choose to leave her chewing gum with security.
However, some point, she made an empowered decision. She was going to get her gum back.
She left the club, retrieved the gum from security, walked back to her car, placed it safely inside, and then returned to the venue. Only then could she relax and enjoy the show with me.
She applied “The Chewing Gum Principles.”
“The Chewing Gum Principles provide a sense of empowered control over your own life within your own boundaries with you being responsible for you own actions.”
How can you use the Chewing Gum Principles in your own life?
Using the Chewing Gum Principles and always being aware of your own personal boundaries, being responsible for your own actions and always be empowered allows you to create a positive impact in your own life.
Even if someone tries to take away your chewing gum.
