Monday got you down? Do you need to put on a happy face and motivate staff today? Read on for Glenn’s Top Ten Tips for Monday Motivation (the alliteration should have at least put a smirk on your face and that’s a start).

Glenn’s Top Ten Tips for Monday Motivation

  1. Get ready on Sunday night to shorten your morning preparation time

  2. Get out of bed the moment you wake up - lingering will only draw out the agony

  3. Play with your pet or exercise in the morning

  4. A good coffee can give you that much-needed oomph and alertness

  5. Get out in the sunlight - overcast or not

  6. Ring or email a friend/colleague you know will be enthusiastic on a Monday

  7. Tackle easy tasks first; or balance routine duties with things that you enjoy most

  8. Plan to do fun and enjoyable things after work

  9. Clean up your desk and leave yourself a to-do list to make Monday easier

  10. Send Your Monday Motivator onto your friends and tell them to subscribe - brightening someone else’s day will help brighten yours too

These are just some of the actions successful people take to get themselves going on a Monday morning. Send me your Top Ten and share them with the other readers of the Monday Motivator.

Have a terrific week.
