It Could Be Worse
Tom was having a terrible day. He woke up late, missed his bus, and spilled coffee all over his shirt. As he trudged to work, he couldn't help but think, "It could be worse."
When he arrived at the office, his boss called him into her office. Tom braced himself for the worst, but to his surprise, she praised him for his hard work on the latest project. Tom couldn't believe his luck. "It could be worse," he thought with a smile.
Throughout the day, Tom encountered more challenges, but each time he faced them with a positive attitude, reminding himself that "it could be worse." By the end of the day, Tom realized that even though things didn't go as planned, he had a lot to be grateful for.
