Monday’s can be tough, that is a fact.

Having an amazing weekend end, which it always does, never stops being tough. Even though we know Sunday will end, it always seems so abrupt every single time. Instead of mourning the weekend on a Monday, let’s make Monday the most productive day of your week. Whoever said Monday’s suck was a loser. Everyone knows Tuesday is the worst day of the week. Don’t @ me. Let’s flip the script a little bit, let’s make Monday’s cool again. Monday is a great day to start off your week.

Here are some of my favorite quotes that will give you the motivation you need to head into Monday like the badass that you are. Save this for another day or share it with your friends, Monday motivation is always needed (even if it isn’t Monday).
