What day of the week do you dislike the most?
I ask folks this question from time to time, and more often than not, the answer is “Monday.”
When I ask why, the usual reply is, “Because I have to go back to work or school.”
A common answer—but one that’s worth thinking about. If Monday is so dreadful because of work or school, why do we keep going back?
Chances are, folks who dread Mondays might be in the wrong job or studying something that doesn’t align with who they are. Maybe it’s time to consider something that makes Mondays—and every other day—worth looking forward to. People who enjoy what they do don’t tend to blame Monday for their misery.
Starting the week with dread sets the tone for the rest of it. That kind of negative energy doesn’t stay put—it compounds, and before you know it, you’re stuck in a cycle that only gets harder to break.
But maybe Monday isn’t the enemy—it’s the messenger. A weekly reminder that if something feels off, it’s time to make a change. If your Mondays are a struggle, take it as a sign to start looking. Look for work that energizes you. Study something that sparks curiosity. No one’s going to show up at your door with your dream life in hand. That’s on you.
As for me—well, I think it’s clear: I love Mondays ;-)
About the Monday sculpt
The sculpt used for this character is simply called the "Monday Sculpt" which is influenced by the vintage/classic porcelain aesthetic. Monday was supposed to be introduced as an April Fools but we didn't get to finish on time - but just like an April Fools - she stirred up a lot of reactions both yays and nays just as keikaku (note: "keikaku" means plan)
