It’s trendy to say, “Thank God it’s Friday.” Yes, we all need restorative time on Saturdays and Sundays to kind of build back our energy for a traditional work week. But what if in addition to saying, “Thank God it’s Friday,” We also said, “Thank God it’s Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday,” and then also on Friday. The point is, do you set the intention to be grateful for every day?
If you’re grateful for the fact that you get to go to work and not have to go to work, I promise you, you’ll really enjoy work a whole lot more. Language is the precursor of results. If you say to your children, “Mommy has to go to work now,” as opposed to, “Mommy gets to go to work, and then she is going to get to come home and see you at 4:30,” That’s a beautiful way to teach your young people how to be appreciative for what they have in the world.
So, decide to say, “Thank God it’s Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday,” and sure you can have Friday as well, but make sure that you set the intention to be grateful for the fact that you have a job and grateful for the fact that you get to demonstrate your commitment to the world through your work.
