Monday Rush



I'm sure I'm not the only one who detests Mondays, the start of a long work week with no breather in between, especially when there is no public holiday in between the week. The sensation that it's MONDAY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!

How can I work for 5 days and rest for only 2 days, officially 1 day, God helps you, you have that day to yourself without anyone or anything to carry you out.

The hurried rush on Mondays is the absolute opposite of a peaceful Sunday morning, and the contrast might be startling if you're still jet-lagged from the weekend.

Monday, the second day of the week, but technically, the first day of the week, has this rugged nature. Traffic is always worse, the waits at bus stops are longer, everyone is rushing somewhere, and the entire mood appears panic-stricken. The sheer number of 'to-dos' and backlogs can be daunting, which is why Mondays can be more stressful than your typical work day, with hectic meetings packed in between from project catch-ups to weekly updates. Not to mention the mountains of emails and documents to sort through...

And by closing hours, it finally dawns on you that you still have four days to repeat the cycle; I wonder how we all endure Mondays.....

But, in the end, we shouldn't let our allergy to Mondays hold us back; Mondays should be a day where you enter courageously; most of the time, I start my Mondays with my eyes on Friday, which is very amusing.

Don't let Monday fever get the best of you; instead, use it to fuel your enthusiasm for Tuesday, and every other day. Tell yourself, "I'm going to have a beautiful week," and you'll be surprised at how enjoyable your week will be. Simply believe and keep a good attitude.

Vision Boards, Accountability, and a Dash of Madness

  "Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." – Oprah Winfrey I started the year with a moment of honest reflection and a big dose of gratitude. Last year handed me a plot twist I never saw coming, but I still showed up, walked through it, and ended on the right side of 365 days. That’s enough reason to be grateful. Now, I’m stepping into this year with measures in place to ensure I’m productive and I get the best out of myself. You know, the “new year, new me” mantra? I think it’s mostly a myth. Honestly, I almost skipped the vision board this year because, let’s be real, last year ripped me off.  I was drained, goals left unmet, dreams unclicked, and less than 10% of what I planned came to life. You only saw me once out of 365 days 😞😞.   So this year, it’s not about a “new me", it’s about rewriting my vision board with real processes in place, plus an accountability partner. (If work no waka carry am comot before we even start.) I’ve missed wri...

Missing the Big Picture

Lost in the details, the small and the near, I peer through the fog, but the path isn't clear. Blind to the vistas that stretch far and wide, I stumble along, with a narrow-eyed stride. The world is a puzzle, a maze to be solved, But I'm lost in the pieces, the details involved. I scrutinize every aspect, each fine-grained part, But miss the grand picture, the essence of art. Myopic and blinkered, I'm stuck in my view, My vision constrained, my perspective askew. The broader horizon eludes my small mind, As I fuss and I fret over things undefined. Oh, to see the big picture, the grand and the vast, To marvel at wonders too great to be grasped! To transcend the minutiae, the petty and small, And glimpse the whole landscape, the grandeur of all. But until then, I'll keep plodding along, Bent on the small things, the details so strong. I'll dream of the vistas I've yet to behold, And hope for the day when my eyes will unfold. Sometimes we get lost in the details, F...
