We all know Monday’s aren’t exactly everyone’s favorite… but who’s to say that we can’t make them productive and fun. So without further due, here are three ways MOSAIC makes Monday the best possible start to the week!
- Look Good, Feel Good: There is a hidden power in having a great power outfit- looking put together has been proven to boost our moods and happiness. So much of the blah that comes along with Monday’s we put on ourselves, which mean WE have the power to change it. So go ahead, where you favorite outfit or those new shoes next Monday. It sounds silly, but your clothes can have a positive effect on your mood whether it is the type or color. (TIP: Studies show you should shoot for violet, red, or yellow to boost energy and facilitate a happier mood.)
- The Most Important Meal of the Day: Unfortunately, too many of us skip breakfast when we are pushed for time or we are running late for that meeting. At the very most, breakfast consists of a cereal bar or coffee. So one of our favorite ways to start Monday with a smile? Pancakes! Or any breakfast item of your choosing. Spend the extra time to give your breakfast some TLC and not only will it kick start your morning, but it will also keep you from feeling fatigued and grouchy reaching for that third cup ‘o joe.
- Change Your Own Mind: If come Sunday you find yourself dreading tomorrow, take a moment and regroup. Tell yourself you are perfectly ok with what is going to come, after all Monday is just another day of the week. The strongest tool you have is a positive attitude. So take the extra time to greet everyone when you walk in, don’t bite off more than you can chew, and above all keep moving.
Monday’s can’t last forever, and anything can happen. Even something awesome. Happy Monday, all… go forth and be great!
