But it’s not Monday’s fault that people are unhappy on the very first day of the week! It is our fault that we have sectioned off the week into the weekdays and the weekend. We have developed this thinking that weekdays are for working your butt off, and weekends are for partying your brains out! It is this attitude that is the culprit here.
I read somewhere a startling statistic that is bound to have you jumping out of your chair. Over half of all the first-time heart attacks occur between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. on Monday mornings! Isn’t that such an appalling bit of statistic? You probably hate Mondays even more now. In India we call it somvaar ka sardard.
