How to have a fantastic Monday, every Monday

All-day on Twitter here in the UK you can find #MondayMotivation trending.

For people ‘not on Twitter,’ this essentially means that thousands of people across the UK are desperately searching for methods to banish the Monday blues and find some #MondayMotivation. For some the answer is exercise, others reach for fruit and some people just like to share funny photos. However, if you’re not locked into a screen on a Monday morning, you may miss out on all of these inventive happiness ideas and still suffer a dramatically poor Monday. But not any longer, we’re here to help you have the best Monday, every Monday.

Start on Sunday

It’s a bit of a no-brainer, but if you prepare yourself on a Sunday, you’re going to have a much better start to the week. Food is always a good incentive, so on Sunday prepare an exciting breakfast and lunch to take into work that will knock your socks off. Having something as simple as food to look forward to will dramatically improve your day. While you’re at it, stop yourself from buying sugary drinks by preparing a fruit infused water bottle.

Make Evening Plans

A sure way to make a Monday whizz by is having plans for the evening. Check your local pubs and restaurants for Monday offers and meet up with a friend for a meal. Suddenly, the day at work isn’t so bad after all, in fact, it will practically feel like an extended weekend.

Get Organised

There is nothing worse than waking up on a Monday with a messy house, messy hair and a messy mind. To stop the inner feelings of panic, get yourself organised over the weekend by sorting out your washing, food, bathrooms and all those adult things you like putting off.

Indulge in Dreams

People love to set themselves new goals on a Monday, be it thinking about a different career, place to call home or fitness goal. Use your breaks in the day to indulge in this dream, plan how you’re going to build yourself up, go house shopping or commit to a new workout class.

Be the Fun Person

Kindness makes you feel better, it’s a fact, so let your offering of kindness be freshly baked cookies for the rest of the office and see how much better than makes not just your Monday, but everyone else’s Monday.

Focus on Positive

At the end of the day, it’s up to you whether you wake up looking forward to the day or choose to be miserable. Set your sights for the next weekend, the next day off or your next holiday and plough on through. Remember that everyone is in the same boat, you’ve just got to make the most of the time you have.
