MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT MONDAYS
by Eric Munter
There’s an unfair stigma that the first day of the week bears. If you’ve ever seen the movie Office Space, odds are you familiar with the quote, “Looks like someone has a case of the Monday’s!” In the movie, having a case of the Monday’s is considered a bad thing because Monday’s are considered the evilest of days of each week. But why?
Why can’t you look at Monday as a positive? Sure, your awesome weekend may be behind you and that may make you sad. Sure, you may have a job which isn’t your dream job. Or sure, you may just hate the day because “that’s the thing to do,” but why not look at Monday as an opportunity?
Every Monday is a clean slate, the first day of a new week – a new beginning. How often do we hear people say they wish they had a clean slate to work from? That is what Monday is. It is a day for you to realize the immense possibilities the week may hold – if only you seize the day and embrace it as a new beginning, work as hard as you can for what you believe in to propel you onward into Tuesday (and the rest of the week) with the momentum you need to achieve what you desire most.
