What are Monday blues?

Ever heard of this term. If no then I’m sure you must have experienced it at some point. Monday blues refers to the slight sadness due to the start of a new workweek.

Much like how we feel good on a Friday evening about a weekend. Similarly the start of a new week gets most of us sad.

You can be in school, college or working, Monday blues will certainly haunt you. This is simply because we don’t like doing what we “have to” do and weekend offers us the freedom to do what we “want to” do.

This is interesting. The society doesn’t let us perform as per our whims but it allocates us work as per what it wants from us. It needs workers in bigger numbers than leaders. So it programs all to become workers and learn to follow rules.

Then we end up feeling sad for being programmed by the society and we feel sad for what we have to do for an entire week. Hence, the Monday blues.

In a survey, it was found that 9.5 out of 10 individuals have felt this at the start of a week.

Apparently today is Monday. Do you feel sad about it that you have to work yourself through Tuesday then Wednesday then Thursday then Friday and if you’re extra lucky then a working Saturday.

I got your back. May God give you the energy to go through all this. You’ve done it in the past, you most certainly can go through it again. Kick out the monday blues and get to work.
