From Bad Day to Awesome Day

How do you turn a bad day to a good day? Sometimes our day does not turn out the way we want it or expect it to be. We wake up, excited and all prep up for the day then suddenly some incident , situation or even a silly remark can ruin our mood. I have had days like this and it really makes me feel so bad. Sometimes, it even ticks me off when my supposed to be happy day turned out to be an awful day because of a certain situation or a person. Nowadays, keep my thoughts always positive. I remember one incident where my husband got upset about a silly matter and we were supposed to have a picnic with our friends (They are also husband and wife). We had been excited about the picnic but I had to cancel it because my husband was being childish.I was soooo sad and upset.Later on we realized how silly we were to fight on who was going to fixed the bed. So we met halfway and called our friends right away before it is too late to say our picnic will go on. In the end,we all had an awesome day.

I make sure to always start my day off positively. I go through a routine of watching something positive on my laptop for 4-5 minutes when I wake up. It gets me into a good mindset. Its usually some sort of inspiring speech. This way instead of having a bad day I end up having a good day. Its all about the way you think, if you think negatively you will attract bad things and repel the good things in life. But if you think positively, you can live a much happier life.

By focusing at the good things. Since even at bad days positive things do happen. It's seldom only a bad day, it's only that we remember the bad thing way more. So take a break, pamper yourself, be alert of what is positive, write it down. At the end of the day keep that in mind, if you wake up next morning tell yourself: this will be the best day of my life, I will do everything in my power to make this come true. Be proud if you are able to find a solution for your problem, if you managed to get through the day and remember there are seldom things that can't wait for a day or more.

That is really awful. It happens to me too. I think that is part of life not all the time is a bed of roses in fact roses have thorns too.

CHANGE OUR PERCEPTION We do everything in our life cos of our habit. Our habit is formed due to repetition and is saved in our subconscious mind. we perceive it in our life and we all have built different perception according to our society, surroundings, friends, religion and son on. So whenever we have a bad day and if we practice we can change. It's also a habit so, let's try to change it consciously.

Hello Belle I´m glad to read you. With our children is very easy to have bad mood, specially when they begin arguing among them because of nothing. I just try to be strong and ignore the fact. I always try to be positive. Blessings Belle... dainy

I am so glad that you had a great day and had a great time. I know it is hard for married couples to know who is going to do what and I know that sometimes husbands can act like children (mine does). My brother, Randy and I all live together and what we do is have a chart as to who is doing which chores and so far it has worked out very well for us. Randy is in red, my brother is in green and mine are in blue so there is no fighting.

Usually, when a supposedly good day turns bad, it ruins my day completely. I would really be grouchy and all. So I tell my kids to stay away from me. I wouldn't want to be talking much. I'd rather just keep myself busy with other stuff.

Petty quarrels. If i were in your shoes, i could have done the bed at once so it will be quick and well done. My husband doesn't fix his bedding upon waking up. I fix it up because if he does, it's not what i want it to be. Anyway, today i was pissed when i arrived at work. The blinds was partly opened on my side of the room, so my chair was hot by the sun's rays. Of course i did my piece of talking in an angry manner, but i decided to just drink a glass of very cold water from the dispenser and voila, i was again bubbly. That's because i don't want to ruin my first day of work again.

It's nice that everything turned good at the end :). I remember once having fights with my family, having dull weather and just annoying official duties at the university administration center... but I received a book that I won on a giveaway at the end of the day, and I felt a bit happier then.

It is really hard to turn a bad day into a good day unless something happens exceptionally good. This is my personal observation.It is a fine morning and I start out with a high hope of passing the day happily but everything may upset due to toxic situation created by someone or other way.It happens to me.
