So what, I’m still a Rockstar!!

“‘I am the greatest.’ I said that even before I knew I was.” - Muhammad Ali

I was feeling in a bit of a funk yesterday. Not sure why. Maybe there wasn’t even a reason why. I just woke up feeling kind of blah and as the day progressed, despite my best efforts to “go to my happy place,” I just couldn’t quite seem to get a better feeling place.

I suppose life is like that sometimes. We have days where we’re feeling on top of the world, as if all the planets, the sun and the moon are perfectly aligned and our day is turning out exactly as we want or planned it, and other days where we feel like we just want to stay in bed with the covers pulled over our heads. Those days where it seems nothing is working, or very little, and our “to do” lists and intentions get blown to hell. We're stressing over bad hair, or being bloated, or our tech toys not functioning properly, or our bank accounts—especially this time of year. I wasn’t full-on having one of those days yesterday; but, I still felt kind of blah.

After trying numerous tools in my feel-good tool box to feel better—walking, meditating, happy videos, even demanding myself to feel better—I decided to call it an early night, earlier than my usual night. However, just before I closed my eyes to sleep, I set an intention that “tomorrow will be better. I will wake up feeling great.”

I am feeling better today. In fact, I woke up feeling better than I did yesterday, and as I headed out for a walk after eating showering and eating breakfast, the lyrics to Pink’s “So What” popped into my head.
So what, I’m still a rock star, I got my rock moves.

“Heck yeah,” I thought. “That’s me!”

Quite honestly today wasn’t very much different from yesterday other how I’m feeling. And maybe, just maybe the only reason for me feeling so blah yesterday was that I forgotten my rock star status.

Great days, good days, bad days, bad hair days, blah days, I’m still a rock star!
