"Serenity Now!" The Seinfeld fans among you will remember the episode in which George's father hollers this phrase just about every time a Costanza enters the room.

I've been yelling that phrase a lot lately, and it doesn't seem to be helping much.

If you've ever been around me for more than a few minutes, there is a personality trait I think you'll notice, and it certainly has nothing to do with serenity.

I think I really dig melodrama in my life. I rush everywhere, and I like feeling busy. The funny thing is, the people I admire most are cool and confident, graceful and relaxed.

Sarah Ban Breathnach, in Simple Abundance, writes, "We can dramatically change the quality of our lives when we consciously seek to restore serenity to our daily endeavors." But, she says, this will happen only when we women stop behaving like "whirling dervishes."

When I imagine a whirling dervish, I picture some kind of gopher-like creature spinning and spinning and spinning until his head is ready to blow off.

Now, I've looked it up, so I know a dervish really doesn't have anything to do with a rodent, but I still like the mental imagery because sometimes I feel like a tense, buck-toothed creature that just wants to howl and spin until I pop.

I don't know where this melodramatic trait comes from. I don't even like soap operas. But then, maybe that's because I live one (or try my best to feel as though I do). Or maybe, because I make my living as a writer, I spend my days looking for the height of drama, even when I don't have a pen in hand.

In any case, I know I'm not alone. Lots of us create the drama we experience. Maybe we do it because it makes us feel more important, indispensable even....the idea that, if we weren't around to handle things, it would all go straight south.

Richard Carlson, in his immensely popular book, Don't Sweat the Small Stuff...and it's all small stuff, says those of us who treat everything as a big fat emergency are frightened that our own laziness and apathy will actually take over.

That's part of it, I think. Sometimes, I fear that if I stop being all frantic and pressured...if I let my guard down for one second, something in my psyche will step in and I'll suddenly realize I never wanted to be such an overachiever after all.

Carlson then clues us in to the fact that the opposite is true. He says we have to get over the notion that "gentle, relaxed people can't be superachievers." In reality, all this melodramatic behavior is quite debilitating. It paralyzes us and keeps us from our creativity, he says.
