How’s your week so far?
At work, at home, or in any other matters of life, there are times when things just don’t happen the way we want them to. One day you’re too happy, the next day things just screw up without your full understanding. It’s like forces conspire and things just don’t work out right.
All we need? Little things like a simple pat on the back, a warm and genuine smile from people around, words of encouragement from those who believe in you when you yourself find it hard to, or a hug.
We sometimes overlook these things when in fact they are free. People have different ways on dealing with situations, we have different take on what could possibly be the perfect solution. We all are different, but we are never alone. Now how good is that?
How to turn a seemingly bad day into a good one?
Seriously, it’s sooooo hard, right? But why don’t we try? Here are some points I want to share.
You are still one of the luckiest persons on earth.
Think of the millions of people who don’t eat thrice a day. Think of those battling in the bed of sickness and those who are born with an impairment. Think of those who live in fear because of social unrest in their homeland.
Turn to your favorite playlist when foreseeing a bad day.
My cousin Leigh posted this on her Tumblr account last night — when in doubt, make list. I say when in shaky mood, create a playlist.
Let the music heal your soul. Remember that 90’s all-star song? Let music ease your emotions, refresh your mind, and drive the negativity away. Sound trip may vary depending on your mood, depending on your music preference.
Smile (though your heart is aching).
Even if things are really getting out of hand, there are still reasons to smile. Take a break, watch a funny video clip on YouTube. Turn to your best pal who always make you laugh hard. Think of that one person who means so much to you. Then smile.
Think of Patrick Star.
Sabi ni Patrick Star (kung totoo nga na sya ang source ng quote na ito): “Everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not yet okay, then it’s not yet the end”. Makes sense, right?
Stay positive.
Gasgas na ang linya pero totoo naman kasi. If good things come to end, bad things will also reach the finish line. Minsan, ang pagiging positibo ang isa sa pinakamabisa mong sandata kapag andun ka sa sitwasyon na parang pakiramdam mo wala nang lusot palabas.
Keep right.
When things go wrong, keep right. Do what’s right and you can never go wrong. Tunog magulo pero malalim ang ibig sabihin.
Close your eyes and ask Him to take charge.
Bad days come but they’re not here to stay. As in any other matters of life, a silent prayer does the work. It only takes a few minutes to talk to God. At kahit gaano ka pa kakulit, hindi ka Niya pagtatakpan ng tenga. 😉
