Let’s face it – Labor Day Weekend isn’t about grinding away or catching up on your endless tasks. This weekend is your golden opportunity to flip the script and do the opposite of whatever your typical Monday demands. Sleep in, skip the chores, and embrace a weekend where the only plan is to have no plan at all.
While everyone else is busy trying to be productive, you’re here to master the art of doing absolutely nothing – and loving every minute of it. Are you ready to break free from routine and find your own version of bliss? Here’s your ultimate guide to everything you shouldn’t do this Labor Day!
1. You Should Not Wake Up Early!
The early bird might get the worm, but today, the worm is on its own! Take this as an opportunity to hit your snooze button on your alarm clock and dream about your happy place.
2. It’s No Mundane Monday!
Forget the to-do list – how about a “don’t do” list instead? Today is a national holiday, it’s not a time to catch up on emails, get ahead of work, or even plan your week ahead. Give yourself a break and only have one goal in mind – relaxation!
3. Did Someone Say Take-Out?
The kitchen is closed. Do not waist your time putting on an apron, your fridge is on strike – just for today! Whether it’s a girl dinner or or a feast to feed many, we’re sure you’ll find something local or online that will cater to everyone’s needs.
4. Should You Stay or Should You Go?
It depends! If you spend every other weekend on the sofa binge-watching movies and TV series, you might like to go outside. As for the people who think hiking is the best thing ever, you might like to take a moment to switch off and experience the life of a couch potato. Think of this as ‘opposite’ day, whatever you usually do in your free time, switch it up!
5. Productivity? Overrated!
Let’s take the labor out of Labor Day and just have some quality time! Skip the emails, ignore the chores, and avoid any phone calls. If you normally do laundry on a Monday, don’t even look at the washing machine. The only routine you need this weekend is one that involves maximum fun and zero obligations.
6. You Should Not Be Reading This List Right Now!
Why are you still here? Go start your weekend! Seriously, put down the phone, tablet, or laptop, and start doing the opposite of everything you normally do!
I’m sure at this stage you think we’re totally delulu, but trust, we have your best interests at heart! We hope you have a Zamazing Labor Day Weekend that hits every vibe check possible.
