Monday Blues Start From Sunday Evening

“Is Sunday already over?” is a common rhetorical question people from all age groups tend to ask as Sunday nears its cycle and makes way for Monday- the day dreaded by most of the population.

It hits the hardest for the workforce as they have a fair idea about the mad rush Monday brings on the work front. Everything that was procrastinated on the previous Friday in view of “it is the end of the week” would be patiently waiting to be attended to on a Monday.

The excitement experienced on a Friday evening tapers through the weekend and it reaches its lowest limit on a Sunday evening as the harsh realizations set in.

Weekends are a brief escape for a lot of people and it is the time when they unwind and recharge their batteries. But, as the batteries are getting recharged, it is already Sunday evening, and there is a discharge of the batteries just by thinking about what Monday is going to bring.

For most people, they are not particularly excited about their jobs, and the ending of a weekend brings natural distress. The lull felt on a Monday morning actually begins on Sunday evening.

Human beings crave comfort and have a natural aversion towards anything that distorts their comfort zone. As far as the days of the week are concerned, Monday will always be the villain.

Funnily, the hatred towards Monday starts from Sunday, and it usually lasts for however long it takes you to defrost from the weekend and get along with the demands of the week.

With a lot of people working from home, there is barely any difference in the way each day feels, but the arrival of Monday certainly brings pangs. There is a reason why calling it sick on a Monday is so alluring. It is one of the best ways to slay the dragon of the week; you will only have four days to think about when the weekend is going to come.
