Wednesday Wellness: Cheer
Happy Hump Day! At the week’s midpoint, we’re providing a bit of levity to help cheer you up. While the current, unprecedented circumstances are no joke, finding sources of joy and humor can help brighten up even the darkest of days. The act of smiling itself also provides a boost to your mood! While the sayings we’re highlighting today won’t magically solve all of your problems, we hope they’ll at least provide you with a good laugh. So check out the humorous affirmations we’ve curated for you this Wednesday:
- “If at first you don’t succeed, try Googling it.”
- “Broken crayons still color.”
- “Giving up on your goal because of one setback is like slashing your other three tires because you got a flat.”
It’s okay to not succeed at everything on your first try! In fact, it’s more than okay–it’s part of being human. And Google is a phenomenal resource to help you fill in any gaps in your knowledge. So utilize it! Putting forth any effort in tackling whatever obstacles are in your way still means accomplishing more than nothing, no matter how small you may feel those successes are. Don’t give up. Do certainly take time to rest and recover, to engage in self-care and address your unique set of circumstances. While we’re here to serve as your cheerleaders, you ultimately know what’s best for you. Trust your instincts. And visit us again tomorrow for even more concrete ways to cheer yourself up both in and out of any workplace.
