Hello my fellow life voyagers,
It's called balance and while the other days are a pain in the butt, I believe that we can find value in those days. We can use those days to know how others feel when we are at a high and they are at a low. We can then empathize with them and offer some advice that we may have needed when we were in their shoes.
I believe that we need those days to make the good days feel good, like living-on-a-high good. I believe we need those -shitty, can't get out of bed, wish somebody would talk to me, I haven't been productive- days so that we can put into perspective how far we've come and most importantly, where we can be. Because we have, in fact, been there already.
Those great days are possible, we can make those days a constant in our life with tricks and tools. I know because I've done it. However...
I'm having one of those other days and let me tell you, it's days like today when I feel the human condition. The insecurities, over-thinking, and self-doubt that sets humans apart from other species.
So what do I do?
Just one thing. I either make my bed, do a work out, or in this case- write a short post. So when I look back on my day, I have at least one highlight to be proud of.
Is it easy? No. But as is the case many times: it's best to not think too much of it and just do it.
Forget about the consequences for just this one task of the day.
What's your one task? What can you do today that you would be proud of at the end of the day? We are sharing this same chapter of life together. We can live our best life one day at a time. Comment below and let's connect, I'd love to learn about you!

Empathize: understand and share the feelings of others
Some days are good and other days are...well...
Some days you feel the motivation running, pumping through your veins and other days I can barely lift my arm to take a sip of my nine dollar wine.
Some days you are a social butterfly expanding your wings over brunches and mimosas and other days you wonder who you can text so you can talk to someone.
Some days you crave the need to be at home, never leaving your sanctuary. Other days home seems like a prison.
Some days you have the confidence of John Carpenter winning a million dollars and other days you think about that embarrassing thing you said 10 years ago (you know what I'm talking about).
Some days you know what you should do and other days you know what you should do..and proceed to not do it.
Some days you check every item off your to-do list and other day you watch the entire first season of a Netflix original series.
