Having something to look forward to makes getting out of bed on Monday a whole lot easier. There's no rule that states all of your fun has to be saved for the weekends! Try setting a standing date with friends on Monday nights. To increase your mood even more, incorporate exercise.

Before you leave your desk on Friday afternoon, take the last few minutes of your day to ease the shell shock for your future Monday self. Got down a list of loose ends and then prioritize the things that need to be done so that when you get back to work on Monday, you can just dive in.

Sunday night preparations can make your Mondays better too.  Afford yourself some extra minutes of snooze time by showering the night before and having your clothes ironed and ready to go.

One of the things that make Fridays so great is that, for the next few days, you are not obligated to do much. Having freedom and flextime are instant mood boosters, but those perks do not need to be held off for just the weekends. Afford yourself some of the same luxuries on Mondays by opting

out of something you would normally feel obligated to do.

Looking good boosts our mood and confidence.  Switch things up by wearing your favorite outfit on Monday and give your mood a chance to compete with the other, more popular days of the week.
