Not everyday is going to be a bad day

[NurseLoveJoy88]

last night i left work feeling defeated, stressed, overwhelmed. today i'm going into work with hopes that it will be a better day. i have to keep reminding myself that i will have my good days along with the bad. i'm also very blessed to have a full time job.

that's all. hope everyone who has to work have a good shift. even if it's not remember that there are better days ahead.

-take care and god bless.

Try the opposite..... Tell yourself today is really going to suck and then if it doesn't it will be the best day ever.

OK, it's today.

I woke up.

My family is still alive and safe.

I have a job.

I will work my shift.

I will go home.

My family is still alive and safe.

It's today.

I don't have 'bad' days anymore. Yes, they're usually hectic and busy with crabby, whiny patients. But you know what? I'm just so grateful it's not me in that bed, it's not my husband with inoperable lung cancer or my mother with end stage CHF. I'm just so grateful that a 'bad' dx is not happening to me that it's always a good day for me.

I usually tell myself it's going to be another crappy day (because it usually will be), and if the day goes better than planned, then it's a nice surprise. Optimism is for the birds.
