The Weekend Lie

by

The exhaustion of performing recovery.

The Weekend by Michael Gray: A disco-house hit that's specifically about "living for the weekend."

Sunday evening. Her colleague messaged her: "Hope you had a relaxing weekend!" She replied instantly: "It was great, totally recharged!" The reality was she had spent the entire weekend staring at the ceiling, dreading Monday, and feeling profound guilt that she hadn't utilized the time for "self-improvement." The exhaustion from failing to recharge was heavier than the exhaustion from the previous workweek. She realized that the pressure to perform recovery was almost as taxing as the pressure to perform work.

😊 😐 😰 😵
