Monday Morning Motivation
Some Mondays, er, most Mondays, you need some motivation to get your morning going and shake those Monday blues.
Well, let’s start with this vintage 80s link. Watch it and come back. I’ll wait…
Okay, now that you’re psyched and ready to work, how will you keep that motivation lasting the rest of the day?
Keep Up the Positive Attitude!
Don’t let anything get you back down. You can’t control what happens around you, but you can control your thoughts and your attitude!
Look Outside!
If you have a window, take frequent looks outside! If it’s sunny, it can’t help but boost your spirits. If it’s raining, well, think of all those positive ions that’ll be floating around after a nice thunderstorm. Don’t have a window? Get a cheery desktop picture for your computer!
Smell the Flowers!
Put a vase with fresh flowers on your desk. Buy a flowering plant. Don’t have a green thumb? Buy a quality artificial plant and spray it with a flowery scent!
These are just a few of the ways to beat the Monday blues and blahs! If all else fails, listen to some pumped up music!
Thanks for the motivation, some of us really need this on a Monday morning.
You’re welcome!
For some reason, Mondays are my favorite day. It’s the BEGINNING! And anything is possible.
I was watching some 80s show on VH1 yesterday, and Katrina and the Waves were featured. They talked about how popular that song is, all the commercials it’s been used in. Katrina is still making music!
That’s a good way of looking at it!
Who needs motivation when I’ve got retaliation on my brain?
Doesn’t that count as motivation?
