Ahh Wednesday, the no man’s land between the weekends. There’s light at the end of the tunnel, but still a fair bit of work to be done.
I always feel quite motivated in the middle of the week. It gives me this nice mindset balance of optimism for the weekend that helps focus me on what needs to be done in the next few days.
