Monday morning often comes with this reputation for being the hardest part of the week the transition from the freedom of the weekend to the responsibilities of the workweek a lot of time can feel overwhelming from where I come from Monday morning is always referred to as Rush Hours a lot of struggle from when you wake up till when you hit the road and it's as if everyone rushed out at the same time you did The road is always too crowded with vehicles speeding as if they didn't have a break everyone is rushing to beat time cars are moving people are walking nobody wants to wait for each other and then when you have successfully snuggled yourself into any available bus getting to work you're welcome with piles of work waiting for you it's always as if they want to finish the whole week work in just one morning by the time you finish the morning work you're already exhausted both physically mentally emotionally and otherwise

But then I have observed and noticed that adopting a positive mindset as the week begins can transform Monday from a daunting hurdle into an exciting opportunity A positive mindset on a Monday morning sets the tone for the entire week it's just about embracing the day with energy optimism and a sense of purpose
After I have realized the beauty of starting your Monday morning with positive energy I have taken up on myself to always put it into practice and today wasn't an exception

Looking out through the window of the vehicle I boarded to work I imagined my day as a fresh start to turn the page on a new chapter and with deep breath I smiled feeling the quiet energy of the morning with my earpiece on and my music blasting in my ears listening to my most favorite song I'M WALKING ON SUNSHINE BY KATRINA AND THE WAVES I reflected the previous week's challenge putting them behind I smile at today with a positive mindset that anything is possible Normally part of my weekend is always spent reflecting on my personal growth and setting small achievable goals for the week ahead
As the car moved I enjoyed the morning breeze the beautiful life's around with birds chirping and the soft golden hue of the sun brings a sense of peace and gratitude everyone around noticed how happy I was perhaps the might think I just won a lottery but this is how I have chosen my morning to be and it's working perfectly for me

Arriving at work I decided to approach every task with enthusiasm whether it's the routine bulky emails team meetings or challenges that arises instead of viewing setback as problems I reframe them as Opportunities For Growth And Every Success With Humility which is the number thirteen of my Everyday Morning Affirmations Declarations and throughout the day I always find small moments to pause breathe and recalibrate and by the end of the workday a sense of fulfillment washes over me knowing that the positive energy set in motion this morning carried me through the entire day
As I got home this evening a deep sense of gratitude just settles in my heart grateful for the mindset that shaped today and grateful for the lessons learned and at the same time excited for the endless potential tomorrow holds
