What Monday Mindset Means to Me
I had the privilege of coaching a company’s emerging leaders in downtown Vancouver last week. It was my first in-person coaching session this fall, and I was filled with excitement.
This opportunity is something I don’t take lightly; after all, you’re investing valuable corporate time. My mission in public speaking and corporate coaching is simple: to raise the room in every room I enter.
Being back in person and elevating the room felt like the real me—I was able to connect with individuals on a deeper level and it felt like I was making the impact I was called to make.
Over the weekend, I reflected on why I write this newsletter every Monday morning. What does "Monday Mindset" mean to me?
Monday Mindset is about my thoughts, feelings, and the self-talk that empowers me each week. Every Monday, I remind myself: “It’s a new week, it’s a new opportunity—let’s get it.”
I focus on the present and the opportunities that lie ahead this week. If I had a successful week, I think, “Great, let’s build off that momentum.” If it wasn’t great, I ask myself, “What did last week teach me? How can I apply that and be better this week?” Viewing each week as an opportunity helps me appreciate time, stay focused on my goals, and constantly improve.
I see this newsletter as an opportunity to raise the room for every one of you who opens it every Monday. I’m committed to writing from the heart and sending these out earlier in the morning, reflecting how I start my week.
Feel free to open them whenever you want and share them with anyone who might want to subscribe. My mission is to lift the tide for all of us, believing in the abundance that allows each of us to succeed.
3 Steps To A Strong Week:
Positive Self-Talk: Begin each day with affirmations that empower you. Rise above the self-doubt and remind yourself: “I can, I will.”
Set Intentions: Take time every Sunday to set your goals and intentions for the week. Do you think Rick Tocchet and the Canucks have a plan for their week, or do they just wing it?
Reflect and Adjust: At the end of each week, reflect on what worked and what didn’t to continuously improve. This is where you separate yourself from the competition; most people don’t want to acknowledge areas that need improvement.
