Who says Mondays can’t be packed with a little fun, happiness, and global domination? If you get the Sunday scaries every week, you don’t love what you do, and you’re not living your best life.
Monday Motivation: 4 Instant Ways to Make Your Mondays Happier
#1. Reflect
What makes you fear Mondays? Whatever it is, something needs to change. If it’s your job making you unhappy, start looking for a new one. If you find yourself wishing you’re your own boss following your passion, start putting the wheels in motion. Life’s too short to be unhappy. Start making moves today, and you’ll feel immediately happier knowing you’re on your way to where you want to be.
#2. Get organized
If you have a chaotic week coming up, carve out some time on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday to get organized. Knowing you’re prepared for the week ahead is a huge anxiety reducer.
#3. Create a Monday ritual
Implementing a weekly ritual which you look forward to every week will help make Mondays more enjoyable. Your routine could be a pamper evening, a movie night, or whatever makes YOU happy.
#4. Prioritize
Every Friday or first thing Monday morning, list everything you need to get done this week. The most important tasks should come first. Finishing your Monday knowing you’ve already ticked off the majority of your most pressing responsibilities for the week is intensely satisfying and motivating.
