It was Friday evening, and Alex, a 32-year-old self-proclaimed "responsible adult," sat on the couch, scrolling through his phone, sipping on what he proudly called his “end-of-the-week” tea. He had a plan—oh, such a plan—for the weekend.
"I’ll wake up early, hit the gym, deep clean the apartment, finally organize that closet, meal prep for the week, and maybe even start that book I bought six months ago," he thought smugly.
Fast forward to Saturday morning.
The alarm went off at 7:00 AM. Alex groaned, hit snooze, and convinced himself that rest is productive too. By the time he actually got up, it was 10:45 AM. No gym. But no worries, the day was still young.
Step one: coffee.
Step two: sit on the couch for just a minute and scroll a bit.
That *minute* turned into two hours. He somehow ended up watching a YouTube documentary on penguins (Why? No idea.). At noon, he remembered he had big plans. He stood up dramatically, stretched, and said, “Alright! Time to be productive!”
Step three: open the closet to organize it. Immediately regret it. Close the closet. Not today. Nope.
By 3:00 PM, he had done nothing significant except order takeout because, obviously, cooking would just take too much time. By 5:00 PM, the guilt set in. He looked at his to-do list, sighed, and convinced himself that Sunday would be the *real* productivity day.
Sunday?
Rinse and repeat.
By Sunday night, as he lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, he promised himself: Next weekend, for sure.
Spoiler: He made the same promise the next weekend… and the one after that.
PS : Inspired from a conversation with my bestie... Trust me .. he's a laaazy ass.
Are you too???
Oh. Yeah. His name is not Alex though.
