Ok. If you have heard me speak at a 3 day workshop, you know act some point I am gong to say, “For years I was ALLERGIC to Mondays”. I even have a couple of slides that say that. 🙂
8.5 years working at a fortune 500 firm (Rogers), made me dread Mondays. That getting up early, commute for an hour in traffic, and a full 9-10 hour day, was waiting for me each Monday.
And even after 30 years of working for myself, being in charge of my own time, I still use to get a little issue with getting motivated on Monday.
Mondays for me have meant:
- I have to work.
- I must be there at a certain time.
- There is someone else in control.
- I hate Mondays.
Well in NLP, there are a series of skills that can deal with this issue and others. I decided to change the meaning of Mondays. Now Monday for me are MONEY Days.
Every Monday, I have to:
- Collect money. Expenses owed. Billing. I love to collect money.
- Work on new income streams. Build one new product, service, web site or idea.
- Joint venture. Look for a new database, I can partner with to build income for them and or me.
- Sell something. I don’t care what. Post on Ebay. Build an Amazon store.
- Sell an asset. Something that is not making me money, but I own. Like a “Domain Name”.
Mondays, Now MoneyDay are something I look forward too. 🙂
