Mondays, Am I Right?

from The Modern Taoist Hosted by Kit Mann

Why do you keep needing Monday to start over? Every week follows the same pattern. You come in strong. Clear. Focused. Ready to finally lock things in. And then somewhere in the middle… it slips. Not all at once. Quietly. A delay here. A push to later. A small break in continuity that turns into distance. By the end of the week, you’re already telling yourself the same story: “Next week will be different.” But nothing reset. In this episode, we break down the real issue. It’s not discipline. It’s not effort. It’s your inability to continue once things stop feeling clean. Through a Taoist lens, this isn’t about starting stronger. It’s about staying in motion when conditions aren’t ideal. Learning how to move from where your feet actually are, not where you wish they were. Because the moment you step out, you create the need for a reset. And the moment you stop stepping out, the cycle disappears. This episode is about continuity. About staying connected to the work. And about removing the illusion that you ever needed a fresh start in the first place.
