We all have good days and bad days. Good days are joyful. These days drive us to the root of positivity. But some days are worse than normal days. For example, today in your startup, a product deadline got delayed, a client was unhappy with your pitch, or your team missed an important milestone. You felt embarrassed, frustrated, and stressed. Or sometimes, even at home, minor conflicts with family or roommates can add to your stress and make your day feel heavier. These types of conflicts can make the whole day feel bad.
Now the question arises: how can startup founders boost a bad day?
Whenever you have a bad day, live in the company of nature. Surround yourself with greenery. Look at the beauty of nature. You will enjoy the beauty of nature by seeing the colors of greenery, feeling the fragrance of flowers, and breathing in fresh air — all of which can take your mind away from startup pressures and world problems.
Beauty and its attractiveness are natural tools for human happiness. Nature’s beauty is pure and natural; it opens your heart and makes you feel like you are part of it. It connects you with your soul. Nature plays the part of listening to your inner self. Your eyes are the best part of receiving information. Nature’s beauty can lead you to beautiful imaginations, ideas, and solutions — something every startup founder can use.
Facts:
We receive 80% of the information through our eyes.
Bad days are also part of life. Life is a gift. This is also another day of life — that is today. Give a reasonable response to that day. As a startup founder, you have many gifts in life: your vision, your team, your creativity, and your ability to see the world differently. Look at the sky, its blueness, the movement of clouds. What would you feel after seeing that? Words of gratefulness will flow out from your mouth. This day is not a bad day. Don’t consider it a bad day. Consider it a unique day. You will notice things you rarely notice in your normal busy startup life.
Every person has good and bad experiences in life. Look at the faces of people you meet — your team members, partners, or clients. Everyone has a story behind their faces. Maybe they have many stories, not just a single story. So we all have stories. On this unique day, stories of different people can be encouragement for you to move forward as a founder.
Open your heart and feel these blessings on that day. All those blessings are gifts for you. If you start feeling these blessings, you will be grateful to life. Your eyes will show gratefulness for life. And your gratefulness will have a positive effect on the people around you, including your team.
So this is not a bad day now. This is a good and unique day of your life as a startup founder. Give a proper response to that day of your life.
