You wake up. The birds are chirping. Your coffee hits just right. You're walking to work in slow motion, wind in your hair, earbuds in, soundtrack on point. Why? Because you’re the main character obviously.

But hold up.

Even in your movie-worthy life, plot twists are inevitable. And no one not even the protagonist is safe from drama (looking at you, random injury, surprise illness, or sudden life chaos). So the real question is:

Are you protecting your plot? Or are you just winging it and hoping the credits roll nicely?


Step 1: Realise You Are the Main Character


Yes, you. Not your best friend who meal preps and owns a filing cabinet. Not the influencer with the morning routine that starts at 4:55am.


YOU.

You’ve got goals. People who love you. Possibly a houseplant that relies on you. So protecting your life with things like life insurance, income protection, and critical illness cover isn’t just smart. It’s main character behaviour.


Step 2: Know Your Enemies (aka, Plot Twists)


Every great movie has conflict. Your potential villains?

● ✨ Unexpected illness

● 🧾 Bills that don’t care you're unable work

● 😬 Debt that still knocks even when you're down

● 🚨 Emergencies that show up without asking


And plot twist: these aren’t just background characters. If you don’t have protection in place, they become the whole third act.Let’s talk body part insurance—a trend that’s been both eyebrow-raising and headline-grabbing for decades.


Step 3: Add a Bodyguard to Your Script (Financially Speaking)


Imagine if every time a disaster tried to sneak up on you, a bodyguard popped out and said: "Not today, villain." That’s basically what life insurance and income protection do. They're your financial security team. They pay the rent. They keep the WiFi on. They help your loved ones stay stable if you ever can't be.


It’s giving: “I thought ahead and built my own safety net, thanks.”


Step 4: Romanticise Responsibility (Yes, Really)


There’s something deeply attractive about having your life together. Like:

● Having a will before 40.

● Knowing what your insurance actually covers.

● Saying things like, “Don’t worry, I’ve got it handled,” and meaning it. Responsibility? Hot. Planning ahead? Sexy. Not relying on plot armour to get through real life? Iconic.


Step 5: Write Your Own Ending


The truth is, even the best stories have messy bits. But with protection in place, you stay in control of the narrative.

You decide what happens next.
You protect your loved ones.
You turn the chaos into character development.

Now that’s real main character energy.


🎬 Final Scene: You, But Unbothered


Picture it: life throws a curveball. But you’re covered. Bills? Sorted. Family? Taken care of. You? Calm, cool, emotionally hydrated.

Because you didn’t just live the plot, you protected it!


Main character energy = insured, empowered, and ready for the sequel.
