A Bad Day Is a Better Future
We all have those days at work when we don’t feel doing anything. We don’t understand in which direction life is going. Everything felt worthless. All the study or work we were doing that day felt like pointless.
It is just an emotion which we all experience. All the successful people go through that, all the artists go through that, all the billionaires go through that.
“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react.” — Charles R. Swindoll
It is your action and your mindset during those tough times that decide what type of person you are. Because if you think that your life sucks it is normal because that’s what life is. But if you keep thinking it won’t change or you are not trying to make it better then it will stay the same.
Life has the answers for the ones who are brave enough to ask questions.
Everybody has bad days, everybody has dark times. It is that dip of the sine wave.
Even Elon Musk said that he is not happy on a podcast with Joe Rogan. What for you and me a successful entrepreneur, hard worker, risk-taker, and high achiever is might not be what he wants in his life.
Life is not fair. That’s what it is. But in another way it is life that is asking you questions, it is life which is challenging you to see you are brave enough to find those unexplored paths which no one has ever taken. If you think you are the next big thing you have to rise and fight against all the circumstances.
That’s what a bad day should fell like a lot of motivation to rise again to fight again. This time with double power. When life is not being fair to you, you don’t have to be fair with your plan, your strategy. Because things which thought, things you have planned will never happen in life the same exact way.
“Everyone has a plan until they get puched in mouth.” — Mike Tyson
That bad day is a sign that your life is not going into the direction where your heart wants it to. Also, it doesn’t mean that when you will do something you really love there will be no bad days. There are always bad days. It is life. You and me everyone will struggle on some days. But, that’s when your heart wants you to say something. Try to listen to that, what it is screaming and start acting on it a little by little.
Follow your heart, it knows the way.
Even though it is a cliche line to say and just doing what you love is not going to make you successful because it required a lot of hard work and persistence and consistency. Which you will see are reasons for any successful person to be at the top. But, before all of that, it was a bad day in their life when their heart was screaming at them to do something they were afraid to do.
A bad day is a spark that starts burning that fuel and then it is up to you to keep adding fuel to keep the fire on for a longer time.
It is a rolling ball effect. When a ball is still it, at first it will take more work to start moving but once it will start moving it will be a lot easier to keep it moving.
On a bad day, you will be highly motivated to push the ball, especially when you not doing what you love. And once that ball starts moving then it will be a lot easier for you to keep moving.
So, take motivation from that bad day to work on something you love and if you are doing what you love take a break from that and explore something else. Because in a battlefield of life you have multiple battles to win.
That bad day will make you successful not today, not tomorrow, maybe 3 years from now but only if you start acting on it.
