So, it is Monday and I have another week of endless possibilities ahead of me. I am joining Wendy from eMoms at Home in putting my to-do list or weekly goals out there for the whole world to read.

Even though the kids are home from school today, I am still hopeful I will get a lot accomplished - I really need to because I am going to chaperone a 4th grade field trip tomorrow and will be out of the office all day.

MY GOALS TODAY:

• Customize a WordPress template for a client
• Write a product review
• Finish my invoicing

MY GOALS FOR THE WEEK:

• Finish two sites for clients
• Walk or ride the bike at least 3 times for 30-60 min. each time
• File the stack of envelopes on my desk

So, what happens if I don’t get this all done? I am going to take the positive route this week. If I get it all done, then I will treat myself to a morning out on Friday to have coffee with my two best pals or to go shopping for myself. Now that is motivating!

What motivates you on Mondays? Is it the fact that you now have a clean slate for the week or is it something else? Do you work better under pressure or at your own pace? Is it easier for you to get things done if you have a reward waiting for you or if you have a penalty imposed?

How can you participate? Either list your to-do list/goals in the comments of this post or Wendy’s (her’s usually goes up midday) or create a post at your own site. Put your list out there and hold yourself accountable.

PS - If you are looking for my Menu Plan Monday post I have moved it to one of my other sites. You can see it at Raising a Healthy Family now.
