Listen Later

Despite what you may think, everyone experiences bad days.   Everyone gets tired, everyone questions themselves, everyone has moments of feeling inadequate, everyone has dark moments when they fear the worst, everyone feels like life is unfair, and everyone has days when they would swear there is someone out to get them because everything has just...gone...wrong.   I know you've met or know people who never seem to have a bad day or worse, you actually believe that nothing bad has ever happened to them or that they're somehow just lucky enough to avoid all the BS everyone else seems destined to endure.   If you are ever going to live an extraordinary life, you're going to have to learn how to deal with bad days.
