'We are all mad': Anand Mahindra refers to Mark Twain’s quote to beat Monday Blues
The quote from Mark Twain said, 'Life becomes fully understandable only the moment we realise that we are all mad'

At the beginning of a workweek, getting rid of the Monday Blues is certainly the most challenging task for officegoers. Sometimes, people get frustrated and bear the burden for the entire day but fail to leave past the vibe. Referring to the topic, Mahindra CEO Anand Mahindra came up with a relevant quote by American author Mark Twain in his recent Twitter post. Mahindra who has a huge social media follower base often tries to motivate people with his exciting and humorous online activities. This time, his ‘Monday Motivation’ also attracted a large number of online users.http://The quote from Twain said, “Life becomes fully understandable only the moment we realise that we are all mad.” As per Mahindra’s post, these words can uplift those who have been struggling every week to combat the Monday Blues. The entrepreneur explained that dedication towards work can be the only way to achieve this.Following the reference, Mahindra wrote in the caption, “You may be able to go in to work on Mondays with a smile on your face if you acknowledge inside yourself that the world’s a madhouse and we’re all a bit crazy. Just make sure you try to be ‘crazy good’ at what you do.”Users hardly wasted time agreeing with Mahindra and expressed their thoughts in the comment section. Since being dropped on the micro-blogging site, the post has accumulated more than 1,500 thousand likes and numerous reactions.A user showed up with a bizarre reference and noted, “There is a thin hairline difference between Workaholics and alcoholics. To avoid hangovers( Monday blues) stay drunk (do homework) pleasantly always.”Another one acknowledged, “Embrace the madness.”An individual lauded Mahindra, “What a thoughtful and liberating one at that.”Here are some other reactions: Previously on 27 November, Mahindra tweeted a cartoon that was so incredibly depressing that it forced him to put down his phone. The cartoon "Nursing Home In A Post-Texting World" depicted speculation of how a nursing home would look in the future. It was a spoof on how people are currently addicted to staring at their smartphone screens constantly.Mahindra captioned the post, “That’s a seriously depressing cartoon. But it’s made me decide to put down the phone (after tweeting this!) and ensure that my Sunday is spent with my neck straight and my head up.” It garnered over 11,000 likes on Twitter.Read all the Latest News, Trending News, Cricket News, Bollywood News,India News and Entertainment News here.
