Monday Madness

I don't know what it is about Monday's. It's not that old cliche about hating Monday's, because in some ways I like Monday.  Yes, that's right. I don't dread Mondays! I reframe my thoughts so that instead of looking at Mondays  as the end of my weekends I focus on how it's the start of a new week and therefore it means time to do things and get things accomplished during the week is at its max. 
However, Monday mornings always feel hectic. It can be from the change in routine from the weekend. Feeling hectic sometimes throws me off in an odd way. So, I have started trying to get up earlier on Mondays and just allowing extra time for peace, quiet and some meditation. I always thought meditation and affirmations were nuts. I couldn't get it into my thick head how they be beneficial to anything or to anyone. As has been the case many of times, I ate my words lol it's a good thing they are calorie free! 
Bottom line is, the more positive you become about your body, your weightloss and  yourself the more positive your journey can be.  That can only be a good thing! So with that said because most do dread Mondays, I'II leave you with this, until next time!

  1. Great post, Alati! I try and do Sunday night some little things like prep my Monday breakfast and lunch in advance, so I'm not quite so hectic on Monday mornings. I wish I had the wherewithal to meditate, but I get up at 5:30 already, and I'm just not enough of a morning person to get up any earlier to allow the time. You are a good role model!

  4. Great post! It is all in the mindset as you say. I tend to be too negative about my journey sometimes, but I'm trying to work on that. Maybe I need to meditate too! lol.... I hope your Monday was awesome.
