Is there a better way to claw your way through your workday than with a little feline meowtivation?

There's nothing I like more than scrolling through some memes before tackling my workday. I'm not sure what it is about them, but I actually see people doing it when I'm commuting to work. I guess we are all facing the same struggles during the week: getting up early, heading to work, and coming home to bed early because we have to do the same thing the next day. Just thinking about it like that makes me want to move to the mountains and never come back.

But we all know that this struggle is only inside our heads. As soon as we get to the office and start working, there's nothing else to complain about because we find a way to get on with the day. Now, about the memes that I've mentioned… It's not like these cat memes are changing my mood completely, but they do make me feel better when I'm heading to work, especially during those first days of the week.

These hardworking cats, or my meowtivational felines, have a way of making me feel less alone when I'm tired, and the only thing I want to do is move across the country and start all over. It's like they get my thoughts, and they find the best way to have me laugh at them… It's the perfect cure! Instead of complaining and feeling sad about myself, I laugh about my complaints, and that triggers my brain into feeling happier, so I get to work in a better mood and have a whole different day.

I've been recommending this technique to my friends and sending them these stories, and I'm happy to report that these working cats are the perfect remedy for the early morning struggles. So, next time you're feeling down and need a quick pick-me-up, come back to them because, for sure, they will make you giggle. And sometimes, even the tiniest smile can be enough to cope with tiredness and anger.
