essay on morning blues
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Why do Monday blues always follow me? It’s 9pm on Sunday and my anxiety levels have reached a fever pitch. I try to concentrate on television shows, friends’ parties, dinner, socialising or something else that I am suppose to do on Sunday evenings, but I can’t really concentrate on anything. My mind gets saturated with the thought of getting up early and travelling with the great and the unwashed tomorrow morning to yet another week of toil.
Isn’t this feeling familiar to all? Isn’t Monday a culprit? I think it has to do with the transition from leisure time to work time.
I have started mentally preparing myself by saying, “No matter how much you hate Mondays, they will come and you can do nothing about it because every day is not Sunday.” Believe me, it’s nothing to do with the type of job you have. I know people who hold rather pleasant jobs but still do not look forward to Mondays either.
It’s just like a fast-moving car, where the change of gears from leisure to work takes place. It takes a bit of time to get back into the flow of mundane work. If seen from another perspective, every Thursday evening I say the opposite, “Thank God it’s Friday.” I have experienced that it is an easier transition from work to leisure than vice versa.
Recently, I asked a number of people for their feelings about “Monday mornings”. This is how they reacted:l A lifetime punishment, can’t get out of itl Sunday should last forever, but every day is not Sundayl And the same daily routine startsl It’s more like a MOAN-DAYl Sundays feel poisoned because of the Monday coming upl Just wake up with a mission to end another weekl I don’t want to think about it
There are still many Mondays to come. So changing the way I feel about them is just one of the best ways to fill my day with passion. I am planning to welcome the next Monday instead of kicking it. It’s only possible if I start doing something new at the beginning of every week — catch up with friends, plan dinner, go shopping or on long drives with dad, wear something new and bright, and much more.
Let’s see whether this works or not. It’s a simple way to beat the Monday blues.
