Drama on Court · Lesson 12

Own It. Repair It. Forgive Yourself. Move On.

We snap. We make the face. Welcome to being human. 😂 Here’s how you clean it up and actually LET IT GO.

The tool

Clean it up

Think of a moment where you were the drama. We all have one. Tap through the four steps and your repair card builds as you go.

Example · The Snap

Example repair card

At 3 a.m.

“I’ve already repaired it. I’m allowed to sleep.”

I get to be human too.

Screenshot it if you want the apology handy. Nothing on this page is saved. On purpose.

The steps

Think of a moment where you were the drama. We all have one.

1
Own it.
What happened, and what was my part?
2
Repair it.
Do I owe anyone an apology? Write it in one or two clean sentences.
3
Forgive yourself.
What would I say to a friend who did this?
4
Move on.
Next time, I’ll recognize the moment sooner by...

We don’t need perfection. We need awareness, repair when it’s needed, and a little grace.

Repair

“I was really frustrated and I took it out on you. I’m sorry.” Clean. Simple. Done.

Punishment

Replaying it at 3 a.m. for a week. Helps nobody, including her.

Scripts

If you owe somebody an apology, give it, clean and simple. Then please let yourself move on.

To your partner

“I was really frustrated and I took it out on you. I’m sorry.”

To an opponent

“That wasn’t okay. I apologize.”

To yourself

“That happened. I’m human. Next ball.”

At 3 a.m.

“I’ve already repaired it. I’m allowed to sleep.”

Your reset

Say it to yourself

I get to be human too.

Clean it up. Forgive yourself. And play the next ball.

Take it home

Answer it in the car, or text it to yourself.

The day I really lost it, written as the future funny story. Tell it like you’re telling it over drinks.

Remember this
