In order to perform at a high capacity in one's job, many people around the world swear by doing the least on a Monday. 

This popular concept to mitigate burnout and stress has seen a recent surge over the net. 

So what exactly is 'Bare Minimum Monday'?

It's exactly what it sounds like... doing the bare minimum on Mondays, essentially a form of quiet quitting. 

Entrepreneur.com shares: "'Bare minimum Mondays' means only what needs to be done to get through the day, Mayes said, including not scheduling meetings and doing more 'creative' tasks, and focusing on self-care."

As shared by the Queen of the bare minimum gang, kick-staring the week on a more chilled note will ultimately lead to a week of success. 

Just with any new lifestyle hack, the internet is divided. Mayes has received much criticism as she uses her platform to promote her little luscious life. 

People have been calling her a "lazy, unmotivated person who lacks worth ethic."

"If being called lazy is the price I have to pay to be happier, healthier, and more productive overall—I'll take it," she wrote in response to the criticism.
