The weekend is a day to relax after a tiring week, for everyone this is a day of themselves which they can do whatever they like, to give a long sleep after a hard time, to have a plan to go shopping, picnic or just simply to clear the house. For me, the weekend isn't a day off to relax that is a day to look back on the past hard work week, to look back we have achieved the goals or not, to look back I'm really doing what I love or not.
My weekend always is a busy day. I'm busy doing things that I love, busy checking my goals in the past week, and having more new goals in the next week. Besides, I also spend time gathering with my friends to listen to interesting stories from them. This is also a day to recharge and get ready for the new week full of life and more interesting things.
1. Gathering with friends after a long tiring week
Friends are indispensable people in my life. For me, friends are people who can share and understand everything that both of us want. We can talk about anything related to life because the distance between friends is very different far from the distance between lovers and family where we can hardly talk about specific things, it's so hard to share upcoming plans in the future with people who are so familiar with each other every day.
Sometimes only friends are the ones who give us a lot of encouragement and strength to continue unfinished plans whether it's success or failure. Only they support us do crazy ideas that no one can accept. Looking back at the enthusiastic period of youth without friends by our side, we are just only moths burning with our passions and doing crazy things in a society where people are jostling each other to make a living every day.
2. Enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning weekend
On the weekend day, enjoying a cup of coffee is one of my favorite things. The taste of the weekend cup of coffee is completely different from the taste of a midweek coffee. They bring a feeling of comfort and peace in my mind when all worries of work have passed. In addition, this drink is like an energy source for a long day off and throws away worries about the things around. Energize for new things in the next week.
3. Learning more about the instrument
Anyone has also a passion but many of them have been forgotten for a long time because affected by many worries in life and it's difficult for them to return that passion. In my opinion, passion is a part of life that makes me able to live fully with my feelings, I usually spend a little time on the weekend learning the guitar which is my favorite musical instrument, so that every week I can accumulate more a piece of knowledge for my passion. Although it's not much, it can also make me more developed in the future.
4. Playing a favorite song with my friends
Sitting around friends and playing a favorite song is one of the interesting things that I have experienced every weekend. Because I and they have common hobbies that are music and instrument, any of us has a different talent such as guitar, piano, electric drum, gradually we had our own band. For example, on the weekend I'm a guitarist and main vocalist, one of my friends plays the electric piano, another plays the electric drums. Just like that every weekend, we have an exchange session about music and instruments and talk about what we learned in the last week.
5. Talking about plans for the future
Among my friends, everyone has also interesting plans. we often sit over a cup of hot coffee on weekend mornings to talk about each other's upcoming plans and see what's going on, what do my friends in the group think about it. I feel this is quite an interesting thing that helps me get a more objective view of the problem I'm pursuing. And it's also a great motivation for me to look for a better direction in my plan. Every time I share my upcoming plans, I receive helpful advice for my next steps in the future and it also helps me see more clearly about other aspects of my life and new directions.
6. Admire the beauty of the surrounding weather
After the conversation when the coffee cup is dwindling, I often give myself some quiet time to admire the beautiful scenery around. I feel there is something very peaceful and poetic. A little silence to listen to the rhythm of the city, to immerse yourself in nature, and enjoy the best weekend.
7. Set new goals for the next week
New goals to overcome the challenge are always in my mind, I often have a habit to mark what I have done in a notebook on the weekend, it's like a gift to motivate myself to move forward. Weekends are times that help me check in with small goals accomplished during the last week and start giving myself new goals in the next week which helps me improve myself day by day. Sometimes it just causes a little change in myself, but in a long time, it's like a habit that helps me not to be left behind and I will always move forward in the way I want.
After all, The weekend is a great day, a day for us to recharge for a new week full of energy, and this is also a day to prepare to start new jobs, new goals to help yourself overcome the limits to move new things in the future. Above are the sharing of some habits on my weekend, I hope my article will help you overcome the tiring working days and enjoy a wonderful weekend.
