Exceptions don’t prove the rule
Having a miserable day? All right, you possibly are. But before you chuck the whole day into your wheelie bin of rotten memories, to fester with the rest, take a moment to check that it is all bad. I bet you’ll remember some things that have happened that were not awful. Were some even OK?
Add up as many moments that you can think of that weren’t miserable. There might even have been a few quite good bits if you look hard enough.
And now describe your day. It’s usually not so bad after all.
Work on your timing and delivery and those bad experiences might even make good stories to tell your mates.
