SUBTEXT is the emotional narrative of a story; it’s what exists around spoken words.
It’s the hidden meaning.
The stuff you don’t say.
Every story has a subtext, and so does every character in a story.
IT’S THE SAME IN REAL LIFE
There is always something unspoken going on.
Through the use of our voice (tone, pitch,melody and volume) body posture and/or physical gestures, we try to communicate what it is we are wanting, the things we don’t have the courage or self-awareness to say in an out loud voice.
But imagine if we did!
HERE ARE 5 STEPS TO UNCOVER THE SUBTEXT OF YOUR LIFE
- Review your past without emotion (facts only please)
- Strive to understand how you got to where you currently are in your life WITHOUT JUDGMENT! 🙂
- Identify your present Given Circumstances (see my blog )
- Explore your opinions about 1 and 2
- Determine your Super Objective (see my blog )
Following these 5 steps will help you figure out what’s really been eating Gilbert Grape… what’s really been driving you.
And that’s not all! Knowing this will allow you to have:
- Better communication
- Make better choices
- Receive better results
Subtext! Gotta love it!
BUT
EXPLORING YOUR SUBTEXT takes time, but trust me it’s worth it to get to the bottom of who you really are. And when you do, you will be in a place to fully embrace your heart’s desire and then communicate it truthfully!
Stand tall! Be brave! Go after what it is you really want in life!
The more knowledge you have and the more truthful and imaginative you can be about creating your future, the better position you will be in to have a life you love. And you deserve it! #subtext
