I love mondays!... said no one ever!!!! Personally, I hate mondays. I know they say that if you love what you do you will stop hating mondays, but let's be honest, even if you adore your job, going back to the routine after spending all sunday watching netflix and eating junk food is freaking hard!
Therefore if you're feeling tired and unmotivated, this is the perfect post for you today, because I’ve found an effective remedy to brighten up the crack of a new week: TED Talks. An inspiring talk ,first thing in the day or in the middle of it, never fails to dust your mind clean of the gloom. And most of these talks are under 10 minutes, so you can watch them easily before you start working or in your lunch time.
So fill up your cup of coffe and check out my 7 favorite short TED Talks for when you find your mornings in need of a pep up.
