What work do you engage daily?

Sunday Night Work Querry

I've heard many adults say that as kids, Sunday evening signalled the approach of what I call "Monday, Monday" blues.   Even now, as adults, the anxiety remains as Sunday morning morphs into evening.  Leaving the comforts of home and going off to their adult workplace ... for a rigorous (or deadening) week ... can generate the same kind of intrepidation within.  


We are wondering here about the nature of Monday, Monday ... and how as adults we may install more resourceful, anxiety-free,  ways to engage work, colleagues, workplace ... some questions arise:


If you looked forward to your school week with confidence and zest, what within you and around you encouraged this response?
If you look forward to your work week with confidence and zest, what goes on within you and around you to bring about this response?
If you had  the "Monday, Monday"  as a youngster ...
...under what circumstances? ...what made it worse? ...what made it lessen or even disappear?





If you ever have  the "Monday, Monday"  now as an adult...
...under what circumstances? ...what makes it worse? ...what makes it lessen or even disappear?



Wondering further about the nature of our work ... and how to engage work as a "pilgrimage"...can ensure that we shape our dispositions and characteristics more consciously. We and the world around us can benefit through our more intentional and deliberate contributions.  Greater satisfaction overtime allows us to enjoy our workplace as a setting of important co-creation on our planet.
