MONDAY MORNING KICK IN THE …

It’s Monday and I am Bitchy!

Monday Monday Monday, ah yes Monday. We need a swift kick of motivation on Mondays. It’s hard to leave the weekend behind.

A lot of people hate/dread Mondays. To me, it is just another day, but a beginning of a new calendar week. However, I must confess, there is something about Mondays that lately have been erking me, lately, causing angst. It is a feeling that I cannot shake off.

I do not dread Mondays. I really don’t, however, for the past two months, something stirs in me when I get going on Monday. Let me explain: I am edgy, yep bitchy, short and snappy, and this is all going on by the time I get ready to leave the house at 7:45 a.m. Needless to say, this lingers as the day goes. Since I am aware of this, I make sure I set timers for my tasks, taking breaks getting outside and fine tuning for the week.

The truth is…

I feel like no one is here, CRICKETS! My hag in the attic sees, smells and feels opportunity here and she runs with it. Party time for her! When this happens, when the door opens, I begin to compare myself with ALL OF YOU OUT THERE! Yes, I know I talk about comparison and how it doesn’t serve; however, I do go there on Mondays. I feel like I do not have a purpose, what I mean is a CAREER purpose. You all tackle clients, speaking gigs, traveling and even dealing with kids…I feel I am standing still.

Wait… STOP! Hold On!!!

I know what is going on here, I am in lack mode. I am thinking about others, but I’m not aware of their full truth because I really do not know what is going on behind closed doors, right?  I see stuff online without knowing the whole truth, and I’m letting the hag dictate my thoughts. Damn, there she blows. I am living off the tip of my nose and losing site of the big picture!

Does this sound familiar? What is one to do?

Mondays are my admin days (something I really HATE!). It sucks the life out of me. So here is what I am going to do:

  1. Meditate on Sunday night to prepare myself, and continue it on Monday morning.
  2. Setting a timer for these tasks. (This works and makes me get up to move and take a break.)
  3. I am going to leave my office and go somewhere else to Change up the same ole, same ole. I need a different environment, especially for Mondays.
  4. Take no phone calls on Monday—stay focused—stay tuned.

Let’s see how this will work. I do know that my awareness is present and this is where I need to begin to change and conquer these feelings.

When lack mode kicks in!

I switch over to thinking too much and I can’t move forward. I feel like I am stuck in the muck, dragging! (This is the prime opportunity for the hag.) I am in my head and not in my heart! (Not good)

I cannot possibly know what is up with anyone on a Monday or any other day, just like my mind assumes: Everyone is doing and going… I cannot possibly know. My intention is to wake up on Monday with delight and to forget about any angst in me. Some re-wiring shall do the trick.

Discover how you can re-wire your life. Start small, think steps. Keep it simple I would love to hear what works for you. Let’s all share. I am off to change this up for my Monday!

Peace,
