Authority Worry Judgement Toxic Trait

Metaphorical Narrative

Picture one of those giant inflatable monsters outside a bargain shop, flailing its arms to steal attention.
That’s the Creep. It looks huge, terrifying, even unstoppable — but only because it’s pumped full of air.
Cut the blower and it collapses into a heap of plastic. No roar, no power, no authority.

The Creep is no different in your mind. It puffs itself up on fuel: worry and judgement.
It struts around with a savior mask, whispers you’re unworthy, and burns your values for performance.
It even crowns everyone around you as authority figures out to get you.
But just like the inflatable, once you puncture the source, it folds.

Core Insight

The Creep exposed:

  • Fuel → worry + judgement
  • Identity → the lie of unworthy
  • Personality → false god-mode savior
  • Values → sacrificed by performance
  • Behaviour → collaboration twisted into ambush
  • Toxic Trait → turning everyone into authority

The truth: it’s all air. Puncture it, burn the fuel, and the monster disappears.

Saturday Experiment

  1. Catch the Creep blowing itself up in your head.
  2. Say: “You’re just inflatable. I puncture you. No fuel.”
  3. Walk straight into the moment you feared — watch how the whole flailing monster deflates.

Sunday Reflection

  • Where has the Creep inflated itself biggest in your life?
  • How much of it was just air you were pumping in?
  • What new space opens once the monster lies flat and powerless?
