Monday, which comes right after a two-day weekend, has a bad reputation. A Forbes report cites research data that suggests how Monday is treated lightly for being too demanding and damaging to the balance formed over the weekend. Monday blues, they say! Now, industrialist Anand Mahindra, chairman of the Mahindra Group, has shared an innovative approach to beating the day’s scares and learning from an excavator operator machine how to channelise its work and lessons into motivation.
The 68-year-old Indian billionaire retweeted the clip on microblogging site X. He captioned the post, “He’s not just an excavator operator. He’s a perfectionist. He’s ‘manicuring’ the pavement. His lesson? Take pride and pleasure in EVERY detail of your work. #MondayMotivation”

“This proves that expertise in one thing is valuable. These days there’s just too much focus on “generalists”, people that are average at many things but not proficient at anything!” said another.
