Mondays have a really bad reputation. I get it. They can be stressful. They are the first day back to reality after the weekend. But it’s really all about changing your mindset. So here are 5 ways to make Monday better (plus an outfit post).
- Dress Up. While it might sound silly, the way we dress really can dictate the way we think and feel. If you roll out of bed to work on Monday chances are your mind will still be in lazy Sunday mode. So get up, put on your favorite shirt or something new, and start the day with a little added confidence.
- Start Fresh. Every Monday is like a mini New Year. So use it as an incentive to work on this year’s resolution. Was it to start eating healthy? Great! Monday is the perfect day to start a fresh diet and detox from the weekend. Plus it’s 5 days from the weekend so you have 5 days to prep for that tight dress you’ll be wearing Saturday night.
- Set a Goal. Think of Mondays as the game planning session for the week. Do you have a project your working on? Use today as the chance to mastermind how you will get it done. Are you in sales? Decide today that you are going to make more calls than last week so you can get an even bigger paycheck this month.
- Start the Countdown. Your attitude is all reflective of your mindset. The glass is half full, not half empty. So while you may be thinking about how the weekend is over, instead you should think about how Monday starts the countdown for next weekend. You are one day closer to the weekend– good for you.
- Spread the Love. If you focus on trying to make other people feel you good, you’ll end up feeling better as well. Text your college friends and remind them of something funny you were just remembering. Is your friend going through a break up? Shoot her a quick note about how fun this weekend will be. Remember: positivity breeds positivity.
