More Than Monday
Most of us dread Mondays. It’s viewed as the death of the weekend and the birth of long work hours, action items and the mark of five days until the next 48 hour reprieve. We rarely see Mondays as the mark of new beginnings. Vast opportunities await us but we’re too distracted to see them as we lament over a cup of coffee.
Today is more than Monday. It’s a new week to transform your world with a series of simple milestones. Every major triumph is comprised of milestones gathered by constant movement and focus. That movement can begin today—the first day of the week.
Monday holds no judgments or regrets. It is an empty vessel of time ready to receive whatever you put into it. We may not totally control how we manage our day but thankfully, we have authority over our perspective – which impacts our day more than we realize.
If you’re unhappy with your current work / family / relationship / health status, Monday is the beginning of a new week that can launch a significant change in your life – one small win at a time. Today is more than Monday, it is the natural progression of our lives – whether we like it or not. It’s almost disrespectful to diminish the fullness of our human experience to the weekends while shunning the other five days; especially Monday.
I encourage you to embrace the beginnings found in the most misunderstood day of the week. Today is the best day of your life because you have yet another chance to overcome obstacles, find encouragement, release positive energy to others and repurpose your future regardless of what comes your way. We don’t have to wait until 5 o’clock or the weekend to enjoy our lives. You can begin right now.
Happy Monday.
