How do you get through your Wednesday Woe's? Whether it be to drink yourself silly or curl up with a good unexpected movie, I bet you have some way or another to keep yourself motivated and push on through to the weekend.
An American English idiom for Wednesday is "hump day" a reference to making it through to the middle of the work week as getting "over the hump." (via Wikipedia)
I myself don't find it very dismal on Wednesdays at all, I would actually say that Wednesday is arguably my most productive day of the week. From being up early and getting the day started with some encouragement, through to prioritizing and accomplishing task, then back on to analyzing and conquering some obstacles with a few lessons learned, Wednesday is packed full of activity for me.
That just might be the 'golden ticket' to get you to that place of amazement (yes I just used Willy Wonka as a metaphor). By having my day full of events and things to do, my mind very rarely wonders to things out of my control or unproductive Facebook lurking. I start my day with a smile as I work with children for the morning. The positive energy helps carry me through the afternoon, in which I am usually planning ahead to the next week and accomplishing what it is I need to get done for the remainder of the week.
Keeping ones self active with productive activities is not an easy feat. I find that breaking your day up into smaller more manageable and interesting tasks helps. To be honest, if I'm not interested in something I either don't want to do it or have a hard time focusing on it. Breaking up your day so that the uninteresting stuff is done sporadically throughout the day in between the interesting tasks, helps me keep a focus on work that needs to get done.

What happens if you don't have a 'hump day'? Perhaps you work a 6 day week or even a 4 day week. A new perspective of how you define your middle of the week.
See you on top of our next hump.
