How Often Do I Have Bad Days?
Summary
- If I think about the days in a year, I know that my worst 10% of days can feel really tough.
- I've got about 36 rough days in a year, which means about 3 tough days every month.
- Every 10 days, I might have a day that's in the bottom 10% for me.
- I often remind myself that I don't always need to change my plans when these tough days happen.
- Instead, I focus on building my tolerance for those inevitable rough days.

How To Take Action
I would suggest setting realistic expectations when starting a new business or working on personal growth. Remember that out of 365 days a year, about 36 might be rough. That's like having about three tough days each month. So, don't be too hard on yourself when a day doesn't go as planned.
A good way of doing things on tough days is to keep to your plans. You don't always have to change things around. Sometimes, what you need is to be okay with having hard times now and then. It's all part of the process.
To help on those days, my tip would be to build your tolerance. Think of it like a muscle. The more you work it, the stronger it gets. That means when a rough day happens, you can handle it better. Here's how to do that:
- Expect Tough Days: Mark on your calendar every 10 days as a reminder that a challenging day could come up. This isn't to be negative but to be prepared mentally.
- Stick to Your Plan: When those days hit, try to follow through with your plans as much as possible. Just slowing down a little instead of stopping completely can make a big difference.
- Reflect at the End of the Day: Take a few minutes before bed to think about what didn't go so well and acknowledge it's just one of those days. This helps you let go and move on.
- Practice Gratitude: Even on your worst days, find at least one thing you're grateful for. This small act can shift your mindset and help build emotional resilience.
By doing this, you'll realize that bad days are just part of the journey and not a sign that you have to change everything. Take it one step at a time, and keep moving forward!
