    "it could be worse" makes people feel that their sadness is invalid. Sometimes you need to accept the reason rather than pushing it down by saying it could be worse.

      Yep, in the extreme "it could be worse, you could be [dead or in maximum pain, whatever you happen to think is worse]".

      @coffeecalendula930 Před 3 lety +6

      precisely.. I fell into a vicious cycle of repressing terrible emotions because "it could've been worse" and feeling a lot of resentment because I was unable to release that negative energy. really agree with your comment

    How to handle a bad day?
    1. Perspective - what different perspective can I look at this situation from?
    2. WTOH - What's the opportunity here?
    3. Exercise - Run/workout which will release dopamine (feel good chemical)
    4. Journaling - Take out your journal and write your heart out and release all the emotions you have
    5. Nature - Connect with the nature, go out in the nature

    How to handle a bad day.
    1. Perspective.
    2. Pivot- what's the opportunity here?
    3. Pharmacy- exercise.
    4. Pages- jurnaling.
    5. Planet- go out to nature.

    I really, really wanted this job.. I wanted it SO bad! I got through the testing part and they invited me to the interview and they told me that my test results were great! But I didn’t get through the interview part.. and today I lost myself. I cried and was lost, sad, angry and dissappointed. This video came as a blessing to me. I went out for a walk in nature for the whole day. I took your words very seriously. Now I feel better, thank you :)

    yesterday was the worst day ever ... I got a bad degree in my exam and I worked very well when I noticed my grade I started to crying *and I'm not that kind of persons * so that disappointed me ... after that I remember a saying in Quran it's meaning is that when ever bad things happen to you believe it results a good thing ... if you NOW hate something you will thank God later on for it .. so, .. thank you master Robin 💙💙💙

    I love the clarity of thought in this video. Especially the "pharmacy of mastery", great metaphor for exercise, movement and physical massage.
    Another method of shifting from a bad day to a good day is serving others which is something that you regularly encourage :) As you teach, there is something primitive and holy about forgetting yourself and focusing on the wellbeing of others.

    I write notes on my phone when I'm feeling down. The next day when I read what I wrote I get surprised at all that stressful way of thinking! Haha! I get some great ideas when I feel that way. In darkness one's roots go deep. And if one's is also meditative height will be reached as well. I read an Osho quote yesterday in regard to this. He was referring to ecstasy though. Anyway one has to manage desperation as well as ecstasy. Osho's quote ran like this: "Ecstasy is a movement towards the height and your meditation is a movement towards the depth. And once you have both, your life becomes a celebration."

    I've been having a really bad day today, which I guess started last night technically. I woke up feeling like Crap mentally and physically and was having a lot of upper back and neck pain and stiffness. That alone had me starting in a very bad mood so I became very irate all morning. Then no more than 15 minutes after I got up, I sat down at my computer and I kept feeling restless like I couldn't sit still which started frustrating me, and then it was making me increasingly mad that the arms on my desk chair were preventing me from pulling the keyboard part of my desks towards me as much as I wanted it to. So in frustration I went to swap my chair for one in the dining room. And at that time I started hurting my knee some more because I'm dealing with just general weakness due to some health issue I have and I really shouldn't be pushing orbpulling or lifting things right now, but with my frustrations today I did any way. The chair as I was rolling it got caught on the rug, so me getting even more irate over that I kind of yanked it towards me and one of the wheels smashed my toe. Which I'm assuming is broken or fractured now. So I started cussing and yelling at anything and everything and smacking random stuff, which only made my hand hurt and my dad came out to ask what was wrong and I then proceeded to treat him like shit. And then out of frustration I said I wished my health issues would wind up killing me, and my mom heard that and replied with "I hope it does too" and that threw me off my rocker. At some point went back in my room to try and calm down and no more than 30 minutes later our power cuts out for a split second forcing me to start my computer from its manufacturer boot screen which I couldn't figure out how to get through for the life of me. I yelled and cussed some more, my poor dad came into help and all I did was say some more mean stuff to him. And that's when I said, screw today I'm going back to bed cuz today's not getting better and I've been here ever since. I never get like this so perhaps it's just all the little stupid things that happened today along with my health stuff that tipped me over the edge. Doesn't make me feel good though the stuff I said to both my parents just because I was overly irate today. Honestly the first time I've ever acted that way. Even when I normally have a bad day or get frustrated I never allow it to cause me to treat others bad. But for some reason today my emotions took full control. At any rate. I said all of this to say thanks for the video. I was still steaming when I went to search for this and some of the stuff said took me off that mindset and calmed me down a bit. Much appreciated
