Hello!

So, I am on the hunt to making Mondays momentous!  Who is with me?  Who wants to not feel the Monday blues anymore and have a different view when Sunday night rolls around and, of course, that Monday morning alarm?  Hence, why I am posting this today so we all can read it, soak it in and already have a different perspective for Monday.

I want it…… 🙂  ……..well, actually, now that we are talking about it, I want to do my best to feel that everyday and making the best out of the small moments.  Does that REALLY mean I will have a great day everyday!?  NO!!!  Imagine me saying that with a very exaggerated, slightly sarcastic tone because that is the tone I am saying it in. 🙂 🙂

What i am trying to convey is that I do believe, in our worst of days or just a bad day in general, might not be able to hit us the way some of them have in the past if we “take on” a different attitude or tweak some things in our mind.  Is that possible?!  YES!!!  I said that “YES” with a very excited, determined tone 🙂 – Am I convinced?  100% since I have been there over and over AND OVER again in my life.

We do have the ability to view things differently, give present issues a tweaked perspective and to find good over bad.  That is in our control and if you can see it…..that actually becomes exciting.

Let’s do it together.  Each Monday, (or Sunday to prepare us:)  we will explore what we can do practically to help ourselves not dread our days.

So……..what are we going to do today?  Let’s start small – simply do something different today!  Simple? Yes…..but will you do it?  That’s right, it REALLY is up to us.  Will our day, tasks, issues….stop us?  Hmmmmmmm, this is up to us………but let’s start.

Take a different road to work and see different things.  Take a picture of what speaks to you and you can remember it for your first Momentous Monday.  Look at your pictures on your phone to recall old time memories.  Call someone that you haven’t seen for a while but they have been on your mind.  Listen to a different song or play your favorite song and dance while no one is watching.  Write down a goal and re-visit it often. Try a different food and explore.

Here’s something different – let’s all put our phones down in this day and age and have a real time conversation and re-connect 🙂 –

Last but not least, if you really are having a bad day, and I have had them a plenty, yet you still want to press through in faith and hope, you could write some things down that you are thankful for, proud of or things that make YOU smile and say a small prayer.  Perhaps, reflecting on them will help you throughout your day.

Let me know what kinds of different things you did to make your Monday momentous!

Happy Monday-ing !  🙂
