5 Ways To Beat Mondays
Deutsch Tutor

As we all can agree, after the weekend we dread Monday’s. You just had a great weekend away from all your problems, and most likely procrastinating. We all enjoy that Sunday relaxing and staying in bed, until bedtime rolls around and we realize we have to set our alarms, and actually deal with life. After reading this article I hope to make your Monday’s a little more enjoyable with these five steps.

1. COFFEE

Most of us agree that after waking up we like to smell the wonderful aroma coming from our kitchens. Or maybe some of us prefer to spend a little more time getting ready to drive to the nearest Starbucks to grab our favorite drink before the day officially begins. Coffee is magical, and simply necessary.

2. DRESS-UP

Dressing up can simply boost your confidence, especially on a Monday. It can add a little sparkle to your day, and essentially make a great start to the week.

3. PREPARE FOR MONDAY'S

We are all guilty of procrastinating, and we shouldn’t. Although it seems easy, it adds more stress. By managing your time better and getting things done in a reasonable time it will cause less stress for your Mondays.

4. TAKE A SICK DAY

Although this is not the ideal option, sometimes we just had too good of a weekend to get back to reality. Sometimes this is necessary to catch up on work, beauty rest, life.. etc.

5. MORE COFFEE

And if these tips didn’t work drink more coffee, and plan for a nap at the end of the day. Monday’s drag on and they never seem to get better or easier.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
