We all have those days where nothing seems to go to plan, where we just don't feel right...and no matter how hard we push we just can't seem to right the ship. The worries I see as issues with this are that some of us will then panic and allow the fear of a bad patch to consume us and easily become a self fulfilling prophecy when it was never any more than a bad day all along. The other is that we can also try SO hard to break the cycle too quickly that we burn out even more and/or make ourselves feel even worse when we're unable to shift our mindset as fast as we'd like. The key is to remind yourself to let go of thinking a bad day is some disaster which will build into a catastrophe. It's simple in theory but when we're surrounded by success and advice, and we push ourselves so hard to keep positive it becomes very easy to forget. So allow yourself a bad day, and let that be all it is.
