Hey, how are you? Nick the poet here. Poet, filmmaker, athlete, sobriety recovery guy. Bipolar recovery guy. Mental health human being try to do his best in the world. How would you describe yourself? And of course, it's so easy to get bound down in these labels. Ultimately, we're all just human beings trying to do the next right thing, the best that we know it. And I wanted to talk a little bit about, uh, feeling flat. And, you know, some days you just don't feel as good as other days. This is one of those days for me.
The past couple days, I had that kind of expansiveness of spirit. And the gratitude flowing today has been a little bit more of, you know, a drag. And so a couple things I try to do when I'm having a day like this. One, um, don't take my temperature, my emotional temperature too closely. Like, if I get too bogged down and why am I not feeling good? It kind of creates more of not feeling good. Secondly, I try to help, you know, someone else. If I reach out and see how someone else is doing, then that takes me outside of myself and, you know, really helps.
And third, you know, just take it easy on myself. Like, not every day, you know, can be really good. I really enjoy the days where I'm feeling super groovy, but I need to accept sometimes that that's just not the way that it is. So that's my couple of good tips for you that you can try when you're feeling flat. I hope you're having a good day, and I'll catch you on the flip side. Bye.
