Last week I was in the local coffee shop when the clerk grumbled about the fact that it was Monday. “Just getting your day started?” She asked with a look of pity.
“Yes I am! And I can’t wait!” I told her. And it’s the complete truth.
I admit it; I love Mondays. I love the fresh start of a new week. I love the anticipation of what is to come. I love what I do.
How lucky am I?
When I was in corporate America, I couldn’t wait for Friday because the pain was just about over. Now I like Fridays because by then I’m pushing my limits on brain power and energy and I am anxious to spend some quality family time. The difference is that I don’t live for Fridays. And instead of getting knots in my stomach on Sunday night, I begin to get excited all over again. Monday is coming! Monday is coming!
If you don’t feel like this, then I urge you to consider the possibilities. Life is so much more rewarding when you love what you do.

My husband and I feel exactly the same way. We can’t wait to get our week started. When you really enjoy what you do, it’s not work; it’s fun. And I don’t think it has to do with luck. It is a decision we make to do what we enjoy. Somehow we each need to step back and consider how to make our dreams a reality so we can all feel excited about working on Mondays!

Working for yourself is fun. I spend my days looking for new legitimate home business ideas.

Well my boss feel the same and he has just created a Facebook group about it: “Thanks God is Monday”.
I must confess that right now I am living for Fridays but I know it would be good to reconsider my position…I’ll tell you how it is the new experience!!! Good week!
