I think I am fighting a losing battle here. Anyone else suffer from this? I know I know, It’s Monday, don’t ask such questions.

After a weekend off, and not doing much “work” at all, sitting down to try and start a project on a Monday morning is hard work all by its self. How do you get and stay motivated on a Monday morning.

Many people tell me it is just a frame of mind. Well in my mind it is hard work. I am a procrastinator by nature and my nature is telling me I have so much to do that I can’t possibly get done. This is just not the best frame of mind.

So what is the best way to start out a Monday morning to make it a great day, and the start to an awesome week full of productivity? Because you have to agree that the way you start your week often tends to set precidence for the rest of the week.

Last night I sat down and wrote down my list of things I wanted to accomplish this morning. So I know exactly which direction I want to go in.

Positive attitude. This goes a long way. I am going to have a good week and get lots of work finished and polished.

Enlist the support of your other work friends. Now mine are mainly other wahms like me, so I use Twitter, Message Boards and MSN. Surrond yourself with other positive people.

And if all else fails double the amount of expresso shots in your coffee this morning!

It’s going to be a wonderful week! I have a great idea for an ebook of my very own! I will have my two business sites up and running by the end of the week. My van is home. I will have a new dishwasher this morning. I have titles for my IC writing job. Life is good! And so is this Monday Morning!!!
