How is your Monday routine?
We start with a board meeting and then continue with team meetings. It takes half of the day already. At midday, I plan the week based on the outcomes of those meetings. How about you?

@dstirk When you are making your purchasing decisions, I think you wouldn't like to be contacted by salespeople on your alignment day.
Mondays are kinda planning days for my team. We create our tasks and assign them. Then, we start working KPI-oriented.
@dilan_aydin Working KPI-oriented is the best. Which KPIs do you have for Sales, Customer success, and Technical support?
@sefasarikaya We focus only on marketing KPIs such as CTR, engagement rate, and organic website traffic. We didn’t start paid advertising yet. Thus we don’t track paid side right now.
Wake up at 7 am. Go for a half-hour swim. Go for a nice shower...Whether you want to learn more about personal finance or trade Stocks, Currencies, Commodities, and Indices, Compare Brokers will help you.
@steven_williams5 Waking up that early and going to swim is something I could do only twice a month. And those days are the days I felt the most energetic.
I like to start my Mondays by waking up a bit earlier than usual to enjoy my coffee. After that, I like to catch-up with any emails I might have missed from the weekend and then plan ahead for the week.
@alessmkl What time do you wake up? I love to see many tasks are completed when I wake up early.
I start by checking all the emails from Saturday and Sunday. Plan the upcoming week's work before the afternoon, so that it saves time for the rest of the week. In the afternoon, I start working to complete Monday's task.
@adithyan And how do you stay in the track? Me too I plan my week but still I am having new tasks during the week.
@sefasarikaya I break down complex tasks into 3-5 sub-tasks, so it doesn't look like a burden and you should try planning your week by including some ME hours. During that time, if you have new tasks try to complete that and upskill yourself or network.
Meet with my developers and the marketing department - it's important to keep everyone's goals aligned and keep everybody informed on what's happening
@rhea_reanoga sometimes cancelled meetings are the best ones, a chance for you to do something more productive 😀
Monday is analysis day for me to check all the websites I manage. I check analytics, search console and ahrefs to check everything is going smooth.
@julie_john In my case it is for Friday. I have my weekly checklists and I'm making sure if everything is going smooth.
Full time job:
Start with checking today's calendar, P0 deliverables, team check ins, aligning week's roadmap with leadership team.
Side project:
Early morning: engage with folks on PH & IH discussions, pick up today's action items on product build.
Late evenings: mostly content reading / curation
@sanat_mohanty What IH stands for? Today I saw it several times but I don't know what is it.
Man that's a rough way to start the week. Mine is more laid back compared to yours, but today I've pulled an all-nighter and will be up the whole day as we have just launched and the page is live.

I used to do it more often, but the weekly cadence suits me best.
Apart from that, it's the same as every other day, i.e.
Wake up around 9AM
Question life choices in regards to bedtime
Make coffee
Set up workspace for the week (we don't have that much space, so I remove my work setup over the weekend)
Start around 10ish
@charlotte_lucas9 I usually question life choices when I go to bed, but it might be better to do that when wake up :D
Woah. That seems like a busy way to start the day.
Slowly get up early to make my morning coffee with all the time in the world for the perfect cup.
Spend some time in Sip......Think.......Sip........Think.......Sip
Get ready for work.
Make a list of deliverables.
Be prepared for all the work updates and take it one task at a time.
@adityasinghrajput It is something we usually forget. We need to take a step back, take a sip, and think about the big picture.
Brief meeting in the morning and then straight to work. Trying to find the window to answer all the emails at once and also have a cup of coffee. Otherwise, workworkwork :)
@diaanna I often forget those breaks. I tried the Pomodoro method several times but I wasn't consistent about it. However, I still know the importance of breaks between tasks, you are doing a good job.
Usually, I use Monday for planning the week and performing some first the most important tasks.
It looks like this:
1. In the morning I try not to be in a rush and go for a walk with my dog, have a longer breakfast, etc.
2. After that I do my little personal week-planning
3. I have a call with my partner to plan the week and track our progress: we analyze our learnings and brainstorm about ways how we can move faster. The very inspiring meeting usually :)
4. After that I have lunch and then move the crucial tasks from the planning to let them go.
So that's it. Also, I try not to do all the tasks on Monday and have some rest in the evening. It's a conscious decision, cause usually I feel really energized on Monday and can work till midnight :) But in this case I'll feel not too good on Tuesday, so I'm working on that balance)
@jane_makarevich It looks like an amazing routine. There are a lot of things that I should copy from your Monday routine
I’m one of those people that love Mondays. Like you, we dedicate part of the day to meetings that set us up with our priorities and goals for the week
