The day is almost passed and if you are still in off-mood, Congratulations! You are definitely a member of "I Hate Monday" club. Considering all the jokes,memes and motivational messages, made solely for Mondays, it's clear that there's a huge population out there, who are not Monday persons...
After two days on weekend, without morning alarms, the Monday alarm will sound like a bell from the hell. Carrying the weekend sloth, everything seem to fall apart and add up to the Monday bitterness. The morning alarm,tooth paste falling off tooth brush, running out of toilet tissues, oven timer, missing the other socks, all these seem to add up to the Monday bitterness. If at all,this had happened on Friday, it would have been a not-a-matter thing.
I'm definitely not an exception. I strive to be a "Monday person", I'm still not there yet. I reap the bad outcome of the inertia spreading throughout the week, just because of one "badly planned Monday". When I decided to stop this ripple action, I came up with the below ways and habituating it.
1. Do nothing on late Sunday
This is a small yet powerful tip which, sure shot, helps. After all your Friday and Saturday night-outs, try to just hibernate on late Sunday. Consider it as a prep-time for the next day. There's nothing more needed to make the Monday more stressful than a tight Sunday evening. Doing nothing on just one Sunday evening will aid to do more things on the forthcoming whole week.
2. Have a good "Sunday night sleep"
Easy to say, hard to practice. If we people, ever had had a sound sleep on Sunday night, we would have never been endowed with the "Monday blues". That rested-feel which you get after a good sleep will never make you Mondays sluggish.
3. Schedule "new thing" for Monday
Are you about to try a new thing? Like trying a new out fit, new shoe, new hairstyle, new bag, meeting a new person or anything of that sort? Please try having it on Mondays. That small thrill or pleasure about experimenting a new, fresh thing will help you, not get annoyed of the morning alarm.
4. Greet your fellow mates
When Friday evenings are filled with cheerful "happy weekend" greetings, the poor Monday mornings are filled with just fake "good mornings". Nurture a habit to wish a "happy new week ahead" to your fellow mates, No doubt, it spreads such a positive vibes to your sphere.
Let's not just spread the Monday jokes and live with it, lets also spread some positive vibes and help ourselves and our mates to face Monday. Don't let the Monday's second name, sink you. Don't lack but pack the passion and motivation. Blow those blues and bloom in the gloom :)
