Bad Day, Good Life: Rediscover Joy in the Everyday
Have you been so caught up in your day-to-day that you’ve forgotten what it feels like to live your day, not just get through it?
In this episode, we explore just it is to let stress and routine distort your perspective, making a hard day feel like a hard life. But what if the truth is, everything is actually okay… you're just zoomed in too far?
In this episode I'll share my own story of nearly hitting a breaking point, then finding surprising peace, not by fixing anything, but by stepping out of the cycle. One impulsive decision to chase a sunset led to perspective, presence, and the perfect Shanghainese dumplings. It’s a reminder that a bad day doesn't equate to a bad life, that zooming out gives perspective to life's stressors, and that life’s magic moments rarely show up in your planner.
Questions to ask yourself:
- Are you zooming in on your life's problems?
- If you zoom out and look at the big picture, how is your life really? What really matters?
- What can you do to invite more of the "feeling of aliveness" into your day?
