Speaker 1: I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get

19
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: your podcasts. Have you ever felt depressed about work only

20
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: to have your dad be like, why you're so down?

21
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: So you told him you hate your job, and he said, well,

22
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: you better talk yourself out of it. And then you thought, hmm,

23
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: I love to talk. I could host a podcast. And

24
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: then you went to Speaker from my Heart and started

25
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: a podcast and got good at it, then monetized it,

26
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: then quit your boring job and told your dad thanks

27
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: for the advice. And he was like, well, that's not

28
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: what I meant, and I don't understand what a podcast is.

29
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: But you seem happy, So that's great, kiddo. You ever

00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: spr e A k E R. Ask your dad, you

32
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: actually don't. Good morning. This is Laura. Welcome to the

33
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,559
Speaker 1: New in our Office, the podcast where we share strategies

34
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: for thriving in the new world of work, where location

35
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: and hours are more flexible than in the past. Today's

36
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: tip is to craft a Monday morning reflection. Having a

37
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: few practices and phrases that help you start the week

38
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: can energize you to accomplish all sorts of great things.

39
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 1: For the past five years, I've had a Monday morning

40
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: ritual of sorts. I tracked my time on weekly spreadsheets

41
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 1: and I have done this since April of two thousand

42
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: fift YEP, I know how I have spent every half

43
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: hour for the past five years. Don't worry, I won't

44
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: bore you with the details. Here. My time log week

45
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: starts Monday at five am. That means that when I

46
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: wake up on Monday morning, I fill in the last

47
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: few details from Sunday, save the spreadsheet, archive it, and

48
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: open a new one. This gives me a chance to

49
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: reflect on the week that has just gone into the

50
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: books and the blank week to come. It's just a

51
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: little moment, but I can do a quick review and

52
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: see what choices I made with my time, and I

53
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: can see a visual representation of the reality that the

54
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: next week is completely open. It will be filled with something.

55
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: Eventually I will be on the other side of the

56
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: next sixty eight hours, but what it is filled with

57
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,839
Speaker 1: is at least partially up to me. It's a memento mori,

58
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: an inspirational moment all rolled into one. You may not

59
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: be into time tracking, but I do think that Monday

60
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: morning presents a great opportunity for reflecting on time that

61
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: has passed and the time that is about to unfold.

62
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: There are lots of ways you can do this. One

63
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: is to look over the past week's calendar. How did

64
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: you feel about the week? Yes, the time is gone,

65
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: but we can always learn things, and doing so while

66
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: the lessons are fresh is more helpful than when they're

67
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: hard to remember. Then spend a minute looking at your

68
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: goals those for the year, your life, your week, whatever.

69
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: Keep these posted somewhere that you will see on Monday morning.

70
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: When you know where you're going, it's easier to direct

71
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: yourself there. You might also come up with a few

72
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: phrases that put you in a productive mindset. It can

73
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: be as simple as this is going to be a

74
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: great day, or I have everything I need. Maybe you

75
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 1: remind yourself that you are open to possibility, or that

76
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: you aim to make people smile. Think about what resonates

77
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: with you, then take a minute to write it at

78
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: the top of your planner or say it to yourself

79
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: in the mirror. In any case, it is so easy

80
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: to start the week in a negative mindset. People often

81
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: don't sleep enough on Sunday nights, and we hit Monday

82
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: unsure of what's waiting for us. When everyone else is

83
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: in a bad mood, it can be easy to absorb

84
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: that even while working for home. But you don't have

85
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,479
Speaker 1: to play along. You can keep yourself focused on the

86
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: bigger picture and take control of your mindset by crafting

87
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: a Monday morning reflection. Over time, these habits will build

88
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: grooves into our minds until they become natural. They take root,

89
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: until every Monday is not something to be endured, but

90
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: an important moment, the start I hope of something great

91
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: in the meantime. This is Laura, thanks for listening, and
