How About Weekend Mood During The Week?

Weekends are for family.

Sure

And friends, gatherings, cleaning the garage, closets, movies, barbecue party, short trips, long drives

Absolutely

Just that, those who choose to do something different during weekends in their early years of their career can actually afford to have weekend mood during the week

Confused?

Is it hard to guess what would their lives be like 10 years from now, if a group of people were engaged in any one of the following during weekends?

Learning a new skill

Nurturing a hobby

Practicing an art

Trading some services 

Networking with right people

Doing something extra

Side hustle

Part time work

Let us not measure outcomes right away.

They may not make millions now, just a few extra dollars

This is probably not their shot to fame either, just a few likes and thumbs up on social media channels

However they are far more prepared with a Plan B and Option B than those who are busy planning parties and having that as their only agenda for every weekend.

Productive weekends will always lead to a productive future and no one can beat that.

Well, now your concern must be - Does that mean no family time? No me time?

You just have to think a little more creatively how you can do what you enjoy doing for a wider market and establish another income, while having your usual fun.

This blog is particularly for those who regularly complaint about their jobs and yet use their jobs as their excuse not to do anything else even during weekends

Begin in a small way

While cleaning the garage involve your teenager so that he learns how to do it – Tutoring

If you love shooting family videos, just shoot some nature videos - Youtube Channel

Learn bakery and gift homemade cake to a near one - Priceless as the cake has a part of your warmth

Learn web designing to create online portfolio for ever graduating student you know

Go and speak in the local health club – offer diet or exercise tips while your family watches you from a distance and feels immense pride about your contribution to the society

Can this ever translate to money?

Get started now and you will know soon

I do not want your imagination to soar as we are not pulp fiction writers however the reality is – when you do a good job with good intentions, it makes great impact stories. Impact and measurable contributions are the best inward marketing strategies.

You will soon know the benefits of small changes and small contributions you do. It will take time. Big things will happen if you do not give up. I am stating the obvious as most people tend to ignore just that.

Do share your impact stories, we will be glad to publish here for the benefit of others. The short distance between inspiration (thought) and motivation (action) should not take you a life time. Get started this weekend.
