"I'm having a bad day."

I hear that all the time from people. And when they say it, you see the grief, their face is all red, their hair is hanging in their eyes -or maybe it just seems that way... distraught looks on their faces.

I mean, how someone’s entire day can be bad. And an even better question is, how can someone have a bad week,, a bad month or a bad year.

The fact that they aren't thinking about what they are doing... just going through the motions, wasting tons of time, being less productive, making unnecessary mistakes. The inability to be in the moment, the habit of having your mind wander to negative thoughts; the weather, what to wear, bills, kids,your wife is demanding, the in-laws are coming over, all these destroy productivity.

You need to block problems and disturbances out while concentrating on what you are doing. You'll then stop making stupid mistakes.You'll get more done faster and better. You'll have an hour or two more time every day to eitherget more done or to relax or to exercise.

You'll have less stress and anxiety.

In short, you'll stop having "bad days" because you won'tbe bogged down by those things everyone else can't get their minds off......because you can.

By concentration! So become aware of what you are doing, make those careless mistakes become a thing of the past, then you'll be able to multi-task, move multiple tasks to completion and at the same time be ten times better at them.

And you won't feel the stress. Chill out man!
