If you’re having a bad day, just remember, it could always be worse. In difficult times, I often tell myself this as well. But my favorite piece of advice on staying motivated comes from Scottish comedian Limmy. He once said, “If this has been the worst year of your life, that means next year will be even better. If it gets worse, then congratulations, this hasn’t been the worst year of your life.”
Served in true Scottish fashion, it’s a blunt but honest way to encourage yourself. You’re probably not going to see Limmy’s inspirational words on Pinterest boards any time soon though. Maybe it’s better to frame your situation against others. Yeah, sure, you had a bad day but was it as bad as smashing a brand new phone that wasn’t even taken out of its box? True story — we’ve got the pics to prove it.
Here’s our compilation of people who probably felt like they were having the worst day ever. It makes us realize that maybe we don’t have it so bad after all. But if you’re looking for motivational quotes after all, there’s some from Bored Panda here, here, and here to help you get by.

Be happy it’s taking care of the mice and/or rats in your home.. I feel like snakes are the “pit bulls” of the reptile world.. they are not out to “eat” you.. they want warmth, a shelter, and a bit of food every 3 to 4 weeks depending on the size of the meal.. That shed means that is a well fed well misted/watered snake. It looks very much like a ball python to me.. But I also don’t know where you’re from and if snakes are everywhere.
It’s ok, everyone has a bad day from time to time. Maybe you were late for work or school and everything just went downhill from there. It feels like one small mishap can set off a chain reaction to ruin the rest of your day.
It’s even worse if you wake up on the wrong side of the bed and don’t even know why you feel down — you already know it’s going to be a tough one. Although many might think of this as just an expression, it’s a real phenomenon and scientists believe it has a detrimental effect on our well-being.

A study was completed by Pennsylvania State University looking at how these feelings in the morning impact our performance for the rest of the day. Their results were published in a paper aptly titled Waking Up on the Wrong Side of the Bed: The Effects of Stress Anticipation on Working Memory in Daily Life.
The two-week study involved 240 adults completing reports on their emotional well-being at different times throughout the day. These reports (known as ecological momentary assessments) aimed to capture how an individual was feeling in the moment, especially in regards to stress. The reports were to be completed at random times throughout the day. The only exceptions were the morning and end-of-day ones which also asked participants if they were anticipating being stressed ahead of time.

That's what happens when you assume the road will be COMPLETELY empty, and drive accordingly.
After the participants logged their states, they were asked to complete a small ‘working memory’ test. An example of this could be trying to recount numbers that flashed on a screen briefly. The results from their study highlighted what anticipating stress in the morning does to people.
“Waking up on the wrong side of the bed” (or being ready to feel stressed) appeared to have a knock-on effect on participants’ working memory tests throughout the day. Although being stressed normally had an effect on their test performance, reporting negative feelings from the start of the day influenced their behaviors far more than anything else. So, science has confirmed that having a bad day isn’t completely the universe throwing you a curveball.

Actually..she knows children really well. If me and my siblings had done this to my mother, there would have been holy hell to pay once the witnesses were gone. Mom needs to take the time to set up ground rules and explain to them the seriousness of what her job is. If they can't understand that, then they can be more bored when mom starts taking away TV, video games, toys and other privileges. In order for them to understand the seriousness of the situation..their mother needs to sit down and lay it out for them. Otherwise, mom may find herself out of a job. No job, no house, no food, no toys. Plain and simple. One way to make them behave..make them earn the privileges. Assign time to each chore, task or assignment. If they don't do it..they get no time for TV, video games or other fun. If they behave and get their stuff done..fun time for everyone. If these kids did this at school, they'd be looking at detention or a trip to the principals office.

Staying motivated can be tricky, but there’s always a way to get through. According to Bo Muchoki, a motivational speaker, being optimistic is tantamount to getting through difficult times. He said, “You can’t control the painful situations that life puts in your path. All that you can control is your mental response to the painful situations that you find yourself in.”

Seriously? I've dropped my MI on pavement with no protective screen (nearly had a heart attack) and there isn't a scratch on it. My Huawei and Samsung were pretty sturdy too. These are way too fragile.

Don’t try to open the box while walking out of the store and/or to your car. Concrete (sidewalks) and asphalt (parking lots) are like magnets for fragile electronics.

From the look of it that's actually a sink plunger and not a toilet plunger anyway. Just based on the size of it- I could be wrong. So many people use drain plungers as toilet plungers though and they're not nearly as effective.

Dental hygienist here...that’s not the actual implant, that’s the implant abutment and crown that goes on the implant post that is in the bone. That looks like a molar and hopefully it can be screwed back into the implant post. It may need an new abutment, though. Either way, the implant itself is probably good.

That is an odd meal, but needs must in these strange times. However, mash your potatoes with a potato masher or a fork. Mix in a little milk and butter as you go, until you get the consistency you want. As said below, don't use a mixer, blender, or food processor.
