This is Why Monday's are the Best

C'mon give them a chance!

This is Why Monday's are the Best

You probably think I'm crazy, but Monday's are the best!

So, really there is one main reason as to why this is the best day of the week. It's simply because it's a fresh start!

First off, it's all about your attitude. Many people have this preconceived idea that Monday's are awful. If you fit into this group, then you are simply making it a bad day before it even begins.

Monday's are the beginning. Do you want to start a new project? Do you want to start a diet? Do you want to make plans for later in the week? You simply have the chance to make a difference, and Monday is only the start. And even if you don't want to start something new, maybe you didn't finish something from the prior week. Monday is a great day to keep working on the project with a new found energy.

Now, I know this is going to sound completely nerdy, but I'm going to hop on my soap box anyways. When I think of Monday's, I think about how I spent the weekend away from my coworkers. So, maybe I bought a new shirt that I want to show off or maybe I have a great story to share from the weekend. I don't know how to describe it other than I feel fresh. I'm the person who, by Monday, I have all my dishes clean, my laundry is done, and my house is clean. I do this, so on Monday, I feel that much better.

Because of this burst of energy I get on Monday, I am the most productive compared to the other days of the week. Being the organized person I am, I love to plan out my week and figure out how far I can get in my work and plan something fun for the next weekend. It's like I push through Monday to get to the next weekend. And if you don't finish what you need to on Monday, you have the rest of the week to complete it.

I get for some people it's hard to wake up on Monday after you had two days of bliss. Maybe you're a little tired, because you had that much fun during the weekend. This is just an excuse to drink a little extra coffee on Monday morning.

The best advice I can give, is to be positive. Instead of focusing on how miserable you might think Monday's are, look at it from a different perspective. Think about all of the things to look forward to. Be grateful and be happy!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.
