I am deciding that Monday is my new favorite day. Deciding, as opposed to having already decided, to signify that this will be an ongoing decision throughout the day.
I have long believed that Monday, or whatever day starts your work week, should be as joy filled as Friday. But truth be told, this is not always the case for me. So today I am deciding, however frequently I need to throughout the day, that Monday is my new favorite day.
Why? Because I believe seeing joy in the traditionally bleakest day of the week will help me see it every day. Because a joy-filled day helps us all be energized and wildly successful. And because somewhere along the line I hope to make someone else’s day better.
How am I going to make Monday my favorite day? Every hour I will take a moment to recognize how I, or someone I encountered, brought joy to the workplace. Especially if it happened during a conflict or problem. And to help me remember these moments, I’ll make a short note of it.
How about you? How will you be deciding to make Monday your new favorite day?
