How To Rethink Bad Days and Make Them Good Days

So many days we think of as “bad days.” But there isn’t really ever a “bad” day. Yes, of course, there are days that do not go the way we had planned. There are days in which what we wanted to happen did not, or days, in which that which we did not want to happen, happened. There are days in which we did not show up in the world the way we like to: with integrity, compassion, dharma, love, and truth. However, none of that qualifies a day as bad! Each day in which there is breath in our lungs and we have the opportunity to open our hearts can be shifted into a good day, a day in which we learned something deep, a day in which we have a powerful transformation or experience. So whenever you find yourself thinking, “that was a bad day,l just ask yourself what you can do in this moment, with however much of the day is left, to show up with an open heart, in love, and in truth.
