Mondays get a bad rep.
It's true--the day that takes away free time and not having to set an alarm probably isn't anyone's favorite. But I've started liking Mondays more and more lately.
Mondays are a fresh start. They're the beginning of a brand new week. They're full of potential and ideas and dreams, if you want them to be.
So yes, you may have to wake up earlier than you would like. You may have to go to a job that you spent the last two days trying to forget about. But you're alive, and you've got a brand new week to do whatever you want with. And that's just exciting.
Pour yourself an extra cup of coffee or two, and take on this week. It's gonna be a good one.
And, since encouraging words aren't always enough to turn a Monday into something happy, I have not one, but two giveaways for you to enter!

What's your favorite thing about Monday?
Oh MONDAYS!!! Well, first of all, I love your inspirational Monday talk. Mondays are always so different in different phases of life.

ReplyDeleteThis Monday is my Friday, so I love it! The joys of shift work. :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree, they are a fresh start and another day of breathing :) I have been missing the weekend though a little today, it was such a nice relaxing weekend at home haha. PS- I just love your blog, it makes me smile every time I visit. Your positive words and happy design!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about Monday is that it's really my Thursday, which makes tomorrow my Friday!
ReplyDeleteI needed this reminder today! Thank you!! I love how you always make me feel more positive. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteFunny enough, Monday's are great for me because my kids have school that day and it is my day to catch up on life and do some blogging/writing;)
ReplyDeleteAhhh, completely agree!!! Also: just cleaning out my inbox on a Monday morning, I've found, is the PERFECT way to start the week. Even if I don't do ANYTHING else for the rest of the day, I feel so accomplished!

I used to hate Mondays but I don't mind them anymore. I think it helps that with my new job I don't mind going to work anymore. :) This morning one of the students brought in cupcakes that she made for the staff yesterday with a note that said, "Happy Monday!" This post totally reminded me of that. :)
ReplyDeleteI totally agree about Mondays! I'm usually excited for the week and running on a pretty good amount of sleep at that point, so they're okay with me! Plus, free stuff, hello.
ReplyDeleteIt's true. Mondays aren't SO bad.
