10 Things That Are Seriously Messing With Your Zen

Fact: It never rains, but it pours. At least, that’s how it feels sometimes. They say bad luck comes in threes, but it doesn’t really. It comes in sixes, twelves and twenties.

Or, at least, that is what it feels like sometimes, as one bad break follows another. But that is rarely truly the case and, continuously harping on how unlucky you are and how everything always turns bad for you, you run the risk of drowning in bad vibes and turning away those closest to you. There’s only so much whining a person can put up with.

Moral: Celebrating even the teeny-weeny good things that happen is one way of not allowing a sense of self-pity to stop you from moving on to greater things. After all, if J.K. Rowling managed to rise over the terrifying trifecta of divorce, the dole and the baby doldrums to become a best-selling author… there’s no reason why  you can’t at least drag your ass to drinks and forget about your soulless job for a couple of hours. At least you’ve got friends willing to drink with us.
