Let me guess, you hate Mondays. Mondays (or Moandays as I often called them),  are, after all the hardest day of the week on  which to get out of bed. Mondays are generally full of edgy, irritable, impatient people.  Mondays have a bad reputation for being a  "dreaded" day - usually signaling the end of a too-short weekend and the beginning of a  too-long work week. Let's face it. Mondays seldom bring a feeling  of warmth and joy to our hearts. But, what if I were to tell you that Monday could be your new Saturday? What if Monday was now a day you looked forward to? Sound crazy? Crazy good is more like it. As business owners we constantly have to think about  everyone and everything,and often put our own needs last. Here are some tips for changes that can turn Mondays into Done Days that actually make the start of your week exciting. Yes, exciting!

In her personal memoir, Tough Choices, Carly Fiorina  (former Chairman & CEO of Hewlett-Packard) describes  her approach to each new role, initiative, or  challenge that she encounters. Before rolling up her sleeves and diving in, she takes the time to ask lots of questions. She makes an effort to understand as  much as she can from as many people as possible.

Asking questions is an incredibly powerful, and highly underutilized, career  success strategy. Think back to the last time you sat in a meeting, listening  while others discussed something you didn't fully understand. Did you jump in  with a question, or did you sit back, observe, and hope it would become clearer  to you as the discussion progressed? If you're like most people, you opted not to ask a question.

One of the greatest challenges facing employed and unemployed professionals alike is lack of a clear career direction.  Most professionals focus narrowly on their daily work and fail to think more broadly about their long-term career goals.  They do not stop to consider whether the steps they are taking today are likely to lead them to their desired levels of career success and satisfaction in the future.
