The only thing worse than a Monday, is a rainy Monday. Your alarms go off and you look outside thinking that there’s no way it’s already morning, look how dark it is outside! The double checking of the time confirms you have to get up and make moves, but in that moment it’s as if your bed grows arms and pulls you in closer. Damn that seductive technique because you’ll probably doze for a few extra minutes which result in you running around like a chicken with its head cut off just so you won’t be late. The temptation to fall into the cloudy eye'd-feet dragging Monday stupor is great, but don't! You have to start on the right foot this Monday to set the tone of the rest of your busy week!
My favorite thing to do on Mondays, especially those rainy dreary ones, is to treat myself to a coffee shop trip before any commitments I have. (Shocking really, I know). It’s a great incentive to get going, AND it puts an extra caffeinated pop in my step.
If you’re not a coffee person, treat yourself to a fun pastry because who doesn’t love a good pastry?! They’re gooey, flakey, fruity, chocolatey, wonderful puffs that you can never go wrong with… *salivates*. You got out of bed and you’re walking in the rain, you might as well enjoy something delicious while you dry off!
Maybe you’re the person that dozed for too long and the chances of having enough time for any consumption are slim to none. HAVE NO FEAR there is a Rainy Monday Treat for you nonetheless. Make yourself a specific Monday playlist for your trip to class with nothing but spunky music on it. It’ll keep you awake and brighten your mood for sure. I super recommend throwing some new Ellie Goulding on that playlist.
Whether you get a treat, get good pump up on your walk, or try something new, make sure you treat yourself on this rainy Monday! Gotta keep energy and motivation levels up to take on the rest of the week! :)
