Gym, Spotify weekly discovery list, small cup of coffee and smth small sweet that goes with coffee, making a doable list of task for a day, accomplish at least one task from the list. Helps me every single Monday.
As crazy as it may sound, I have started to look forward to Mondays since the pandemic! I guess it put things in perspective. It has made me realize that the problems I used to consider significant, such as Monday blues and other daily concerns, were actually trivial in comparison to the challenges we've faced. Also, I absolutely missed being able to get out of the house and go to work. So crazy as it may sound, I look forward to Mondays now! :)
Here's my advice to you: implement the second brain approach. When you get used to setting weekly goals, your brain will be prepared and ready when it sees a clear plan in front of it.
I do Martuni Mondays in San Francisco! It always gives me something to look forward to. Best piano bar in the city, and Monday is the BEST night for it.
I think that if you start doing something, no matter what the main thing is to start further, it will pass by itself, Monday is considered to be a hard day after rest. But the advice is to work on the weekends)
Bit of a lifehack, but I've been using As Project Manager to organize my workflow. Their dashboards are super intuitive and it's been a game changer in keeping the chaos of Monday morning in check.
