Lessons from the 2018 Grammys

Here is one of the top lessons from the 2018 Grammys

 “Everyone’s a winner, even if they don’t take home a Grammy”. Last week’s Grammys demonstrated that brilliantly. You didn't have to be Bruno Mars (who swept the awards) to be a winner.

Jerry Seinfeld proved that. He didn’t win a Grammy but he got a puppy from host James Corden that said "no one goes home empty handed!"

Banking from Breakup is just like the Grammy’s. You don’t have to win a Grammy to be a winner! So even though you had a breakup you still win. Weird. I know right?!

You might be thinking how is that a win? Your relationship ended. I get it. I’ve been exactly where you’ve been. But, here’s the thing your breakup ending is the win. You may not see it that way. But you have an opportunity if you choose to learn the lessons from your breakup and move on. You get to choose how you do your breakup. Your breakup did not happen to you. It has happened for you. How you break up with your breakup is 100% your responsibility. It is up to you to determine how you will turn your breakup into an asset if at all. What it boils down to is making a decision to do your breakup differently than how you may have done in the past.

Banking from Breakup is all about winning

I couldn’t agree with James Corden more! Because you shouldn’t leave a breakup empty handed! You can almost think of your breakup as a Grammy. 

It was absolutely amazing to see the looks on the faces of those celebrities that received puppies.

It goes to show you that once again you didn’t have to win a Grammy to come away a winner.

The big lesson here is that there were a number of great celebrities that didn’t go home with a Grammy. But they are still great. They are no less of a person because they didn’t win. Same for you. You are no less of a person because of your breakup. You are still this amazing person albeit with a little less baggage.

So the good news, you don’t have to win a Grammy to bank from breakup! You don’t even have to be a celebrity to bank from breakup. The fact that you had a breakup is enough. Your breakup is your opportunity to build up.

This is a great reminder to us all that we actually win, when we lose. Strange but true. Because everything happens for a reason. As much as we may not want to hear it.  You may have lost your relationship but you gain so much more because of it. I gained myself back as a result of my breakup. I got back in the driver’s seat of my life. And what a great feeling it is.

This was a major realization for me

I remember thinking to myself how heartbroken I was. But then I soon began to see the opportunities and the possibilities. It was like my breakup broke the spell and gave me my life back. It was like I had to find myself again and rediscovered who I was. I am a firm believer in if something is not meant to be then so be it. You can’t force a relationship. It never works. Who wants to be in a relationship that is not mutual. I want no part of that!

I knew someone who tried to force an ultimatum on their partner and it didn’t work. It got messy and awkward. They ended up breaking up. Their ex went and got married and started a family with someone else. Not always easy to practice. Because the heart wants what it wants and so what about the consequences. You desire to have an amazing relationship with an amazing person. You shouldn't have to settle, be someone's second option, backup plan or side piece. 

Takeaway: You deserve more, better and the best . You're a winner regardless of your breakup.
