my monday theory
April 11, 2011
I firmly believe there are two camps of people when it comes to Monday. You either hate Monday or you love Monday. I happen to be a Monday lover. I love starting my week with clear goals and things to accomplish. In fact Monday always seem like a new beginning to me. I love that. It is a great “default” day to make mini-goals. Does anyone else do this? I am hoping you do…c’mon make me feel more normal!
Monday Goals:
Healthy Living:
-
Bootcamp (M and W evening; F morning)
-
Cardio (T, Th and Saturday mornings)
-
Softball game (Sunday night)
-
1 new recipe this week
Professional:
-
Continue to work and develop my website for ‘Healthy Living With Kelly’ meal delivery.
-
Draft/Edit the ‘Healthy Living With Kelly’ weekly email.
-
Send/out feedback form to clients on meal/meal delivery program.
Personal:
-
Accept what can not be changed and instead look for what can be learned.
What Kelly Said 
Happy Monday!
I haven’t found my camp yet – I like Mondays, but we aren’t in love.
I had no idea that was your new business, how fantastic!!
I’m not a hater or a lover. Its just another day. But, since I work on weekends too, the days of the week don’t really mean much to me. I am looking forward to that changing!
Are you done with BFL?
I think it’s great that you set weekly goals! I am not a Monday lover but DO like starting fresh MOnday morning (if I don’t have to work…I love mondays!). Great goals! If you try the penne…I wrote the recipe with the lemon already cut back. I halved what the original recipe put!
I like the goal idea. Gives you something to look forward to for the week.
It all depends — if I got plenty of stuff done on the weekend I don’t mind Mondays, but if I feel behind on sleep and I have a busy week coming up, I hate Mondays 😦
I love that you make goals like this though — I’m sure you’ll do great!
I think I like that last goal the best. 🙂
And I have a love/hate relationship with Mondays. I really love the feeling of a fresh start and back into my regular routines…but the weekends are always so fun too!
i honestly don’t mind mondays because i feel like they give me a fresh start! i love the idea of weekly goals!
So funny Kelly, I STILL to this very day am reminded of you each & every Monday because I remember a while ago (on your old blog) how you said to start your Monday off on the right foot- plan new goals & just have a good outlook on the day.
Now I don’t mind them much either 🙂
Love your positive attitude about them!
I usually like Monday’s. I like organizing and preparing for the week and getting a fresh start!
Oh I can’t for that website to be up and running. Freakin awesome!! and don’t you have a bday to celebrate this week? YEA!
Yup….tomorrow.
I do love that I can start mini-projects/start fresh on Mondays. Usually by Friday I have given up on picking up around the house and/or trying to cook dinner or keep sane. But come Monday, I can say ‘I can do this!’ Of course, then EVERY week is like Groundhog’s Day because I usually fail by Friday. Ha!
