Do you do anything special or just treat it like every other day?

Hello @richardfliu. Like others have mentioned, I think that Sunday evening is critical for a great start of the week. Typically I wind down with a cup of tea and review the items that our team and myself personally are looking to work on and accomplish for the week. It helps to have that information in the back of your mind... sometimes I even dream about a solution that we're working on!
In terms of mindset, as @gd77 mentioned as part of the pattern of getting the most of a Monday, making Monday one of your favorite days can be huge. A lot of people think about Monday as a drag, or if you've ever seen Office Space "a case of the Moondays" 😂. Taking on any task with the intent of having fun and being productive will at least make it more enjoyable, if not also more productive. Mondays are no different.
Hi @richardfliu. Great Mondays normally start on Sundays by taking a quick view of my calendar to plan my next week. Mondays, I try to wake up early before everyone else, get some exercise, and meditation. That said, this is my goal. I often find my self missing one or more of those three goals, which results in procrastination (:/) Hard truth:)
@richardfliu Thanks! I tend to meditate for 10 minutes a day. More than 10 minutes, I find it hard to retain the schedule over a longer period. What about your Mondays?
This is a weirdly topical question for our launch today. We created a tool to help make sure you get your morning right (Autopilot). It's particularly important on Mondays since in the same way that the morning sets the tone for the day, the monday can set the tone for the week.
I resonate with people who said it starts on Sunday though. I like to do a goal setting and general week envisioning.
But also - my "mondays" often fall on thursdays, fridays, and tuesdays, because I use non-traditional 4 day long weeks, which I have found are better for productivity.
Every friday, i have a list of phone calls ready to call on Monday and do that vigorously :) Whom to call? What to say? what problems do we solve and why we should be given a chance! Helps me understand customer pain points and their lingo. Find more customer segments and also keep refining my pitch each time
@nilova_pande Hi Nilova. Really interesting method! Do you schedule customer interviews for this type of calls?

@eivindhaa Yes Eivind, I use LinkedIn and Calendly for setting up these calls. Of course there are many other ways and tools!

I start week on Sunday, so Monday becomes just a usual day. On Sundays, while everyone else are resting, you can put things in order and nobody bothers you. And Monday (which anyway is start day of working week) is less stressful.
