How Monday Became My Favorite Day Of The Week

All my life, I’ve heard people talk about how bad Mondays were: “Bad case of the Monnnndays?” “Must be Monday!” “I hate Mondays” “Welp…it’s Monday. Back to work.” And expressed as an emoji, “😒”.

So…I think we’ve habitually developed a national day of negativity. That’s kinda lame.

So in the past few years, I’ve switched my thinking on the day. I did it by celebrating New Years more and more. After I started taking New Years seriously*, things began getting better for the year. I was having so much fun with New Years optimism, that I started working towards monthly goals. It was like I had twelve mini-New Years celebrations every month. After that…you guessed it, weekly. And the final switch was when I got a calendar that started the week with Monday. That cinched it for me. With a mindset that was all about embracing about new beginnings, I just didn’t see Monday as a bad day anymore.

Now, every seven days, starting with Monday, I look at my calendar and expect better things to happen in the week.

The only bad part about it is…eh…nevermind. It’s Monday right now. I have a good week ahead of me.
