How do you cope with the changes in work mood from Monday to Friday?

1 Monday: A survey in Germany found that nearly 80% of adults were depressed after getting up on Monday. Professor Derby's observation also found that Monday is the peak time for employees to ask for leave. Professor Li Jianming, executive director of China Mental Health Association, pointed out that after the weekend, it is difficult for relaxed body and mind to switch to work immediately, and Monday became a "transition period".

People feel that things are piling up, but their attention and memory can't keep up, and their brains seem to be on strike. At this time, everyone is dealing with the messy work at hand, and visiting customers or reporting to the boss may hit a wall.

Countermeasure: Don't let any thoughts about working on Monday disturb the happiness of the weekend. Go to the office early on Monday, sort out the work to be done, sort it in order of priority, and finish it in an orderly way.

2 Tuesdays: Professor Derby's research on "Hard Work Day" found that Tuesdays are the time when people's subjective initiative is the strongest, and people's efficiency is high and their output is the largest; Tuesday afternoon is also the peak time for job seekers to submit resumes.

A survey in Britain found that most people will give up their lunch break on Tuesday, and two adults will work overtime until late at night; People's stress peaked on Tuesday 1 1: 45. On Tuesday, people walked out of the idle state, their work got on the right track, and the pressure followed.

Countermeasures: Don't pile everything up on a certain day, so as not to bring too much pressure to your body and mind. If the work is too complicated, stop for a few minutes and have a cup of coffee or tea to calm down the bad mood.

Adding whole grains, deep-sea fish and fresh fruits and vegetables to lunch can supplement magnesium and omega -3 fatty acids, which helps to relieve anxiety.

Wednesday: Professor Derby, a depressed "superman in the workplace", analyzed that Wednesday is a good time for people to make decisions, because they are fully adapted to the busy state, have the most energy, the most open mind, the most active thinking and the strongest creativity.

However, Wednesday is the middle point of the working day. Last weekend's energy reserves gradually disappeared, and next weekend will be a bit far away. People are like falling into a swamp.

Countermeasures: Professor Derby pointed out that people are more eager to communicate on Wednesday, so we might as well arrange the meeting on this day. Li Jianming suggested that making weekend plans during lunch break and after work on Wednesday, such as meeting friends, watching movies and going for an outing, can make the next weekend closer to your heart and look forward to life more. Wednesday is a good time to get together with friends, so we can talk about trifles and troubles together after work.

4 Thursdays: Tough "Darkness before Dawn" Professor Derby's research found that people had better talk on Thursdays, when customers are most likely to sign contracts and are unlikely to be embarrassed. Li Jun, an associate professor at the Institute of Cognitive and Neuroscience of Beijing Normal University, pointed out that after three days of intense work, the nervous nerves relaxed like a string that had been pulled for a long time.

However, near the weekend, the things to be dealt with are increasing instead of decreasing, which makes people in a dilemma. Fatigue will naturally make some people relax their requirements.

Countermeasure: Make a deal with yourself on Thursday: do more work, complete it without discount, and treat yourself to a good meal or a concert on Friday night. In addition, Thursday is more suitable for doing mechanical work that doesn't cost much brain, such as entering data and checking and proofreading.
