I neglected to mention one additional point that really struck me from the chapter in The Ultimate Career. Elaine mentioned how her therapist gave her a unique suggestion. She told her instead of calling them "Bad Days" call your harder times, "Slow Days."
Somehow calling them "Slow Days" has really been a positive for me. I guess it comes down to connotations of words, but "slow" doesn't sound nearly so depressing as "bad." So for my own personal classification, I have "Good Days," "Slow Days," and thankfully only occasionally "Bad Days." (Bad Days = Days that aren't even good enough to use the nice euphemism, "slow days.")
