How To Have A Good Day No Matter What’s Happening In The World
I don’t hope you’re having a “good day” today.
Why?
Because the “day” has really nothing to say about it.
The quality of your day has nothing to do with all the random unexpected circumstances, events, conversations or thoughts that pop into your life and into your head.
Seriously. Telling someone to “Have a good day” or “I hope you have a good vacation!” or “I hope your relationship is going good.” is part of our pop culture problem.
And it has a LOT to do with the excess number of highly sensitive, highly reactive and highly anxious people these days.
If you were teaching a child a lesson on “How to Have a Good Day“, would you teach him/her to “hope for the best“?
Would you teach them they are at the whim of every single unknown circumstance, event or word someone says to them?
Would you teach them to just point their head down, stay away from trouble and try not to upset anyone?
Hell no, you wouldn’t. I know this about you.
You would teach a very different lesson to the child about their self-esteem, their worthiness and their ABILITY TO BRING THEIR BEST SELF INTO EACH AND EVERY DAY.
You would teach them that all those outside circumstances, words or thoughts are AT THE WHIM OF THEM AND THE SPIRIT THEY BRING INTO EACH AND EVERY DAY.
So…next time someone asks you, “Did you have a good weekend?”, I’d love for you to reply, “Nope, the weekend had a good ME!”
In this video I go a little deeper into WHY this is the only reasonable and intelligent approach to each day.
You can believe the world is happening to you…or believe YOU can happen to the world. Pick one.
When men tell me they want:
- More confidence
- More happiness
- More respect
- More hope
- More influence
- More love
…I tell them those things are natural results of something else.
Those things come into your life only when they FIRST COME OUT OF YOU.
That is exactly the transformation we will teach you. It’s one thing to tell you WHAT you need to do.
We will demonstrate and teach you HOW TO BE this man in every aspect of your life.
All you need now is the courage to open up your heart to someone who has been in your shoes.

As Teddy Roosevelt said:
“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.”
Q: How do I have a good day when everything keeps going wrong?
A: You stop trying to “have” one. The day doesn’t decide your state—you do. When you bring grounded presence, humor, and self-respect into every moment, you stop being ruled by circumstances. That’s emotional leadership—the kind that makes life feel good again.
Q: Why do I keep reacting to things I can’t control?
A: Because you believe those things control you. When you think the world is happening to you, you live on defense. But when you realize you can happen to the world, every challenge becomes fuel. Calmness isn’t passive—it’s power under direction.
Q: How can I stay confident when life feels uncertain?
A: Confidence isn’t built by outcomes—it’s built by action. Every time you respond instead of react, you’re proving to yourself that you can trust your own strength. That’s how grounded men create certainty inside chaos.
Q: What’s the real secret to being happier?
A: Stop chasing happiness like it’s a reward. Happiness happens naturally when you’re living on purpose—when what’s coming out of you is gratitude, clarity, and courage. You don’t find happiness; you create it through the way you show up.
Q: How do I stop feeling like the world is against me?
A: Change your perspective. Life isn’t a test you’re failing; it’s a classroom teaching you how to lead yourself. When you start owning your responses instead of blaming events, the world stops feeling heavy—and starts feeling like a place you belong.
Q: What’s one mindset shift that changes everything?
A: This one: “The day didn’t have a good me yesterday—but it will today.” When you bring that energy, you stop waiting for luck, timing, or permission. You become the weather in your life, not the forecast.
