Ways to counter Monday blues
During the weekend, aim to avoid losing track of time frequently, otherwise
on Monday, you'll be sobbing on the inside, wondering where those precious
two days went.
Too late to bed on weekends and you will not sleep well that night, and the
sleep deprivation created by one later-than-usual night over the weekend can
affect your energy levels on Monday.
“The first thing to do is to ask yourself what’s wrong,” Kjerulf says. If you have
the Monday Blues most weeks, then this is not something you should laugh
off or just live with. It’s a significant sign that you are unhappy at work and
you need to fix it or move on and find another job.
To help combat that Monday morning anxiety, be sure to leave yourself as
few dreadful tasks as possible on Friday afternoon.
When you're adjusting to routine again on Monday, pace yourself, so that
your first day back isn't as stressful. By being organized already, there is less to
run around "finding".
Plan something for after work so that you have something to look forward to.
Monday is probably just the start of a hard week ahead, so you deserve an
exciting event at the end of the day to motivate you while you work.
Use Monday as the day to wear your favorite new outfit. This can help build
your confidence around the office and might get you a few complements from
co-workers.
Make a vow to do something nice for someone else as soon as you get to
work on Monday.
Ask yourself: why does Monday have to be blue? Just because everyone says
so? Well, it doesn’t have to be. Yes, you should ‘reprogram’ the way you see
Monday. Monday may be the day we have to drag our feet back to work after
an awesome weekend but if you look at it as the beginning of a great week
ahead, the thought can empower you and propel you to a great start.
