Weekend

Most people have to work hard all week and the weekend is their chance to catch up on some of that lost time. Whether it be spending time with friends, significant others, family, or partaking in activities you enjoy, this brief window of freedom should not go to waste. Here are seven tips that will help you get the most out of your weekend.

1. Don’t Spend Your Entire Weekend Sleeping: Sleep does a body good but there is only so much you can do before it becomes detrimental. As we live our lives we produce something called adenosine which makes us feel drowsy and eventually we sleep; we create more as the day goes on as opposed to less as night approaches.

If you stay inside all weekend and sleep, you’re just going to get more tired. This doesn’t mean that you should never sleep but it means that if your body is telling you that you need some shut-eye then go ahead and take the hour or two nap. If not, then get up and be productive (or try to at least).

2. Be Social: Whether it’s through friends, family, or significant others; staying social ensures good mental health. It keeps your mind active while providing you with opportunities to make memories with people who will invariably become a part of your life story; these stories are the things we think about when recalling our lives down the road.

Although Facebook can provide an almost “virtual association” with everybody else in our lives, it’s best to get out of the house and meet people face-to-face. Chances are, if you’re over 25 years old, hanging out with friends will provide a workout for your body as well.

3. Keep Working Out: Although coming home after work is good every now and again, most people who exercise on a regular basis say that exercising helps them alleviate stress hence allowing them to have more productive weekends.

It gives you something to look forward to instead of dreading, makes you healthier sooner or later in life, and might even help you lose weight. So Saturday morning should not be the time where you decide “I’ll start tomorrow.” Start today by getting up early, healthy food throughout the week, engaging in physical activity.

4. Don’t Start Anything Masochistic: You don’t have to work on the weekends but there is a difference between being productive and being masochistic about it. Some people start their day by waking up at 4 A.M., getting dressed, eating breakfast, and working out before leaving for work which usually starts an hour later than normal so they can get their 8 hours of sleep during the weekdays instead of 7 or 6.

That’s not healthy nor is it helpful when it becomes routine because you are wasting valuable time that could be spent with family, friends, or yourself (which brings us immediately into our next point).

5. Practice What You Preach: If you’re one of those people who has to work every weekend then at least make sure that you are practising what you preach; meaning, if you’re telling your kid(s) to not spend their entire weekend inside where it’s dark and all they do is “relax” then please don’t be one of those parents.

What kids see mom or dad doing will typically reflect what they see in the parent down the road so just think about that for a second.

Kids learn by example so if mum or dad always talks about how great it is when they get free time on the weekends, catch up on sleep, or perhaps even engage in activities they enjoy like Joo casino online playing yet never does much of anything other than sitting around and watching TV every Saturday/Sunday morning then the kids are going to get a skewed version of what life is supposed to be like.

6. Make the Most Out of Every Day: Whether it’s spending time with your family, friends, or significant other; if you have people in your life whom you care about then make the most out of every day because at one point they will no longer be around and that time will come sooner rather than later (trust me on this one). So take a walk with a loved one, play games with your kids, sit down, and read/watch something together every once in a while.

7. Evaluate Yourself: Evaluate your life and improve on it if necessary. Are there some things that you want to get better at? If so, then start working towards becoming a better and healthier person. Are you unhappy with some aspect of yourself?

If so, then figure out how to change it because nobody is perfect and everybody can get better at something. Evaluating yourself is important because it allows you to see what you are capable of doing and not just that but there will be times in your life when things get really tough and the only thing that separates people who complain about how tough things are with regards to their lives is whether they keep trying or give up.

That’s entirely up to you and nobody else. Do what is necessary to make your life the best it can be and not only will you love yourself for it but so will others, guaranteed.

So now you know 7 tips on how to get the most out of your weekend. Every single person has the same amount of time during the week, weekends included, so it’s best to spend that time wisely because at the end of the day you’ll be a lot happier for it.
