Another amazing Monday is about to come to an end! I hear people all the time hating Mondays like they were intentionally put in front of them to stop their progression in life.
Mondays are great…Why you ask? Because they set the momentum for the rest of your week.
Nobody finishes their projects on Mondays…their always starting new beginnings on Mondays! A real professional looks at Mondays as a fresh start towards their goals and achievements.
Corporate America is known for packing their Mondays with staff meetings and change management announcements so that they can complete implementation by the end of the week. Why is that?
Mondays were meant to be greeted with new energy and enthusiasm so that by Friday there is a sense of celebration in the air for all that has been accomplished.
I challenge you to make your next Monday the best day ever by implementing just a few quick and easy steps:
- Greet the day with enthusiasm and excitement
- If you haven’t already done so, prepare a list of what you want to accomplish for the week
- Tackle the hardest things on your list on Monday! (The rest of the week then becomes a breeze!)
- Keep the momentum going throughout the day by challenging yourself to completing just one more task on your list before calling it a day
- End your Monday by taking a few moments to celebrate your day’s accomplishments and setting up the list for tomorrow’s agenda
- Then shutdown the office and enjoy a fun and relaxing evening
Every Monday can be a new beginning, but only if you allow it to be so…If you greet Mondays with a heavy heart and sense of resentment, then that’s exactly the type of Mondays you will continue to have. Go and have a GREAT Monday!

I think many people dread Mondays because they have to go to a job they don’t like, or they find their work is meaningless. Been there in the past. However, your suggestions are a great way to put a positive view on a new day and a new week. Thanks!
Gladys..You make a very good point about some dreading Mondays because they are in a job they hate…but you know my thoughts on that one!!! Life is too short to hate what you do day in and day out and NOW is the time to design the “Exit Strategy” for moving to something they will enjoy!
