You never really know how your day will go. Oh sure, you will get up, go to work, etc, etc, but anything can happen to alter your normal routine. For example, I went to work today and within an hour had a flat tire and another losing air! My wife forgot her cell phone and needed me to take it to her so…I aired up my tires, drove home to get the phone and when I arrived at my wife’s office, I opened a bottle of carbonated, flavored water (while sitting in my vehicle) and was showered with the red colored water! As I sit here at the tire shop waiting for my tire repairs, covered in red water, I just had to laugh.
Many things are going to happen, often, that can alter your day but it doesn’t have to ruin your day. Always try to just laugh it off because some things are beyond your control. This also can help us think about those we interact with at work and home. If someone appears to be agitated or irritable, they may have just had some unforeseen “happenings” that altered their routine and they are not sure how to deal with it. Why not give others a smile and be pleasant around them, it just might alter their day for the better.
Is your day ruined?
