Hump Day Tips
Wednesdays tend to be a struggle for a lot of people who work in offices. They are a day where a lot of work needs to get done, but the motivation to do so seems so far away as that holy Friday afternoon is not within grasp yet. Ever feel like you’re dragging your feet on these days and just straight-up don’t feel like working? Well, we have a few little tips to get you through this hump day.
Attitude is everything, so when your attitude is off, or “blah”, or just plain negative, you tend to feel bored, blank, etc. Looking at the root cause of this issue, why not try to do something about that boredom, or that sense of “I don’t want to” and make this time you have count for something. An interesting article entitled “The Boredom Manifesto” suggests a very alternate perspective on boredom that doesn’t include trying to add colour to the grey parts of your day.
When put under the microscope, our lives consist more of relatively boring portions of time that lay in between the things in our lives that we enjoy and benefit from the most. The reality of this situation is not deniable…so what can we do about it? That answer doesn’t seem very appealing, but it’s simple: succumb to the boredom! Embrace and realize the fact that the accomplishments you achieve in these boring portions of time are what allow us to benefit from the exciting times we experience. Use your hump day effectively. Get as much work done as you can so that you can set yourself up to leave worry-free on Friday and embrace that weekend of yours.
Happy Hump Day!
