Away with the bad mood! 23 ways to have a happy Monday
Monday is a struggle. A great fight. But you don't have to be defeated in this fight. You must emerge victorious by circumventing the lethal weapons of the most terrible day of the week.
Here are 23 ways to review the light at the end of the tunnel.

1. Ask yourself, "What's wrong?"
If you already wake up in a bad mood ask yourself: what really worries me? This way you could identify the cause of your discomfort and better manage your mood.
2. Stay one step ahead of yourself
Don't put off things you could have done perfectly well on Friday afternoons. This way on Monday morning you will feel (and be) lighter.
In short, the saying is valid: Do not postpone until tomorrow (Monday) what you can do today.
3. Take some time in the morning
There is nothing worse than waking up literally throwing yourself out of bed and having to do things in less than 15 minutes. There is no better way for Monday to amplify its nefarious power to instill malaise and nervousness.
Take 30 minutes for yourself: a cup of tea, take the dog for a walk, take a bath. Little things that will help you start the week better.
4. Impress (you) with a dress
Every woman has a designer soul inside her. So why not indulge her? Make Monday mornings more fun simply by opening your wardrobe and letting your imagination run free.
5. Remember that the weekend is for disconnecting
The work is usually from Monday to Friday. Enough. The weekend is made for other things. So enjoy them!
Watch a TV series, go to a concert, plan something with friends or family.
If you have a bad weekend, Monday will be even worse!
6. Don't skip breakfast
You know: breakfast is important. It is useless to repeat it like a mantra. But on this occasion, it must be said that a good breakfast will put you in a good mood and you can better face the negative force of Monday.
Smoothie, milk, coffee, even salty if you like: the important thing is to nibble something before going to the office, not when you are already at your desk.
7. Listen to some music
Listen to your favorite music on your way to work - create your own playlist and set the tone for your start of the week!
8. Always take your lunch break
Don't miss out on your lunch break, even if the boss wants you to finish a job ASAP. Lunch will help you face the work afternoon much better.
If you have time left, go shopping!
9. Make someone happy
Don't neglect your relationships. Give a selfless compliment, offer something, help your colleague. Little things that will make your inevitable Monday less overwhelming and lonely.
10. Make a small commission
To deceive boredom, make a small commission that you didn't have time to do before: pay the bill, book dinner, buy cinema tickets. You will immediately feel better when done!
11. Schedule meetings for the week
Make sure you plan meetings with colleagues or clients at the beginning of the week. This will allow you to avoid delays, and will prepare you better to face all the commitments of the still long week.
12. Avoid negativity like the plague
Don't let Monday, the day of negative thoughts par excellence, get the better of you!
Rather do as many things as possible so as not to think at all!
Otherwise, Monday will win.
13. Plan for the future
Plan a new business project by talking to your boss about it or arrange a meeting. Just think about the opportunities the week can offer you - the future is bright.
14. Get out of the house!
Let your brain breathe by taking a break: this will increase productivity then and improve your mood. Take a short walk, call a friend, anything to get some fresh air. Time will pass more easily, you will feel like you've done great things and Monday will end earlier than usual.
15. Get a pampering session
Take care of your face and body, get manicures and pedicures ... in one word: pamper yourself!
16. Schedule some activities to do
Put Monday aside with all its negativity by spending it planning things to do in the evenings of the other days of the week: going out with friends, karaoke, shows, cinema and so on and so forth!
17. Make a to-do list
Do it already on Friday afternoon (have you already forgotten tip number 2?).
18. Meet with a "friend."
The commitments of the week make us lose sight of the duty to cultivate our friendships
Pick up the phone and call, without waiting for the following Friday.
19. Go out for dinner
Ice cream, pizza, take away, luxury restaurant ... the important thing is to go out for dinner.
If you just can't go out (I have kids ...), then have fun cooking some new recipes.
20. Take a nice bath
Soap bubbles also wash away Monday's negativity.
What's better than a nice tub, bubble bath and a good half hour in the hot water at the right point to regenerate and forget any accumulated stress in an instant?
A must do on Sunday evening! Monday will have another face.
21. Go to bed earlier on the weekend
The weekend is for fun, that's right. But don't forget that regularity helps. That going to bed earlier means waking up earlier, fixing the biological clock ... and managing THAT awakening on Monday morning much better!
22. Appreciate (your) life
In the end ... what will this Monday ever be? Look around and within yourself and you will understand that it is not all that bad (it could be worse!).
23. Smile!
Because the smile is contagious! And many smiles together defeat Mondays!
