Master Your Inner Dragon: A Journey to Self-Discovery
It is neither your shadow nor your burden. It is your flying companion. In a world full of uncertainties and challenges, we all face internal battles. Today, I invite you to discover how your mind can become your ally instead of your enemy.
“The true voyage of discovery lies not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” – Marcel Proust
A Daily Encounter with Fear
Imagine you have just received an invitation to give a talk at an important event. You relive those sleepless nights questioning whether you are truly prepared. The memory of your public speaking classes in school haunts you. The idea of failing, of not measuring up, begins to creep into your mind. “What if I forget what I have to say? What if the audience is bored? What if I laugh and fall silent?”
The night before, you realize that you have spent the whole week rehearsing the talk in your head. All that effort has only fed that little voice that whispers: ‘You can’t do it.’ You feel more overwhelmed than enthusiastic.
The Awakened Dragon
What is happening in this situation? That dragon barking inside you is your reptilian brain, your survival instinct. It is designed to protect you, but its way of acting tends to be destructive. Whenever you face a challenge, the dragon activates, raising fears and self-criticism.
This dragon is not an enemy. It is not meant to sabotage you; it is simply afraid that something might go wrong. When it is not heard, that dragon becomes the captain of your ship, leading you into turbulent waters.
Understanding the Dragon: Science and Symbolism
When we talk about the reptilian brain, we are referring to an automatic system that reacts to danger and often interprets situations negatively. In neuropsychological terms, this happens because the most primitive part of your brain reacts quickly, before reason has time to intervene. These are the automatic negative thoughts (ANTs) we all experience.
But here is the good news: you are not broken, just poorly trained. By learning to dialogue with your dragon, you can transform it from a fearful being into a loyal companion.
Tools to Guide the Dragon
Let me present you a powerful tool from the Dragons methodology: the reins. These are techniques that can focus you and help redirect those automatic impulses.
Verbal Rein
Change the way you talk to yourself. Instead of thinking “I have to give this talk,” remind yourself “I choose to share my story.” This simple verbal transformation can completely change your perception.
Emotional Rein
Remember that your emotions do not define your identity. If you feel fear, name it as if it were a visitor. “Today I feel afraid, but that doesn't define me.” By giving it a name, you disconnect a little from its power.
Behavioral Rein
A small daily action can be more impactful than a big plan. If you decide to practice your talk for five minutes a day, you will begin to build familiarity and confidence.
Reflection Exercise: Dialoguing with Your Dragon
Think of a recent occasion when you felt the dragon took control. Take a piece of paper and a pen and write a letter to your dragon. Ask it: “What do you need me to know about you?” Listen to its response. You may discover hidden fears but also valuable lessons.
The New Possibility: The Flight of Consciousness
At the end of this process, imagine what your life would be like if learning to dialogue and listen to your dragon became a habit. How would you feel stepping onto the stage, not with the pressure to be perfect, but with the excitement of sharing what you love?
As dragon riders, we have the power to unite our mind and our instinct. I invite you to take that step towards self-discovery, to embrace and guide your dragon towards new horizons.
