Do you have days when you feel you’ve been picked clean, with little remaining part of yourself that hasn’t been pecked at? I call them my Skeleton Days, as in, that’s all that feels left of me. My friend, blogger Liz Strauss, calls them the days when “it feels like we’re in a black hole.”

You know days like these, too, no doubt. Petty skirmishes—too many of them. Small affronts getting bigger than they should have. Small irritants that end up looming large. They take our good energy, leave us dragging, and worse, leave us open to—maybe even inviting—more of the same.

But thanks to Liz, you now have six great ways to take charge of such moments and turn them on their heads. In The 6 Quickest Ways to Fill Your Universe with Stars she notes,

Every time I give my soul room to breathe, everyone around me gets nicer. The people in it shine brighter like the stars they are. So I’ve been working on ways to fill my universe with more stars.

I knew I like Liz so much for a reason…she’s one smart woman, shining a brighter light in the world. For the six great ways to make a bad day good, be sure to stop on by Liz’s post. Maybe even tape a copy to your fridge or computer monitor.

Thanks, Liz!
