My campaign to ‘Reclaim Monday’

Lets face it; Mondays are quite possibly the worst day of the week. For too many years I’ve experienced a severe case of what is commonly known as ‘the Mondays.’ You know what I’m talking about – the dreaded wakeful hours Sunday night reviewing the next day’s to-do list, the chore of waking up on time to the early alarm (and it doesn’t matter how lovely the alert – the songbirds are still a rude awakening), and the migraine I get as homework after a long stressful day back in the office.
Not cool, Monday. Not cool at all.
So after a bit of thought (and some inspiration from my friend Candace), I’ve elected to shift my approach. Cue the Campaign to Reclaim Monday.
Today was day one in my quest to shift Monday from being ‘blah-I-hate-my-life’ to ‘well-that-was-manageable.’ Good news is, it worked. Here’s my secret…
Make Monday evening fun. I decided last night to go to the cinema this evening. With my new Cineworld card, I get unlimited films for £14.99 so it’s time to make it work for me. Tonight’s plan of attack involved a friend from work and a 6pm showing of ‘The Muppet Movie’.
Verdict? First Reclaim Monday was a success because I am feeling lovely relaxed. And the demands of the day seemed manageable knowing I was due for some excitement come home time.
Care to join the revolution? Just chose something fun for Monday night and make it your focus to get through the day!
