Kinda like taxes, tough days are unavoidable.  You may see the tough times coming.  But sometimes, they just roll right over us.  A conversation, a text, a phone call, or an event.  Something hits and the bad time is here.

Some people will say that tough times are a sign that you are "off-course," not living right, not doing what you "should" be doing.

But guess what?  One cost of living is dealing with tough times.  Illness, accidents, losses, and deaths -- they are all a part of life.

You don't have to like the tough times.  But we do have to get through them.

Which raises the question of how to get through the tough times.

I cover handling tough times in this episode of the Thriveology Podcast.  Listen below.
