Quick Hits

How does the average person feel every day?


Listen Later

When this topic was suggested by a panelist I thought, “I’m not sure if this is going to create a great conversation.”
 
There are so many sticky points. How can any of us know what an average day looks like for someone else?
 
But then I realized, if the four of us were willing to talk about how we feel on an average day, or maybe just day to day, the conversation could really help normalize that not every day is a top-of-the-world day.
 
Tim Hawkes made the point that when we do have really great days it is almost like we forget what a bad day is like and we can barely imagine what someone who isn’t having a good day might be going through.
 
And Emily Rentas provided us with a great visual of how a bad day can be like a dam breaking and our emotions can just be swept away in the raging muddy water full of debris.
 
Dr Cole Galloway reflected on how often our internal voice says things like, “I don’t think I’m cut out for this” and how great it would be if we could all work in places where we could show up as our authentic selves and the people we work with would accept and support that (and we would accept and support them).
 
What do you think? How do you feel on an average day?
