For those who work with their mind, Mondays should be for dreaming and planning. They are the morning of the week, and each Monday brings with it a new beginning, a fresh start, and a sea of potential.

Mondays are my favorite day of the week for the same reason the morning is my favorite time of the day. The morning is when my mind is most clear — there is not yet the accumulation of “mental clutter” from the activities and worries of the day and the whole day looks like a blank canvas.

A wonderful piece from Shawn Blanc last Monday. It's true that the weekend is always a news lull, which is good and relaxing. And then comes Monday with a torrent of pent up articles and news. It can be overwhelming at times. They say once something is put on the Internet it will always be there, even if it is promptly "removed". Remember that. Use Monday as a blank canvas to create for Tuesday through Friday.
