We have been conditioned to always look for a solution and to find the reason we are feeling off and correct it immediately. While this is a natural response when something feels wrong, not every low mood needs a full analysis. Not everything is a crisis. Some things just need time.
Trying to fix the feeling can sometimes make it worse. You start overthinking, blaming yourself, wondering if this means you are burnt out or not cut out for what you are doing. Typical spiral. One thought leads to another and before you know it, you have convinced yourself something is deeply wrong. When you find yourself here, it’s best to remember that this is probably just one of those days and that it doesn’t necessarily mean you have lost your drive or that you are not serious about your goals. It’s just one of those moments. You’re having a moment. Let it pass.
