People often ask me where Four Mondays came from. When thinking about both myself and the inspiration I wanted to provide for people, making change with simple steps was key.
28 Days; 4 Weeks; 1 Month
There is a common theory that originated in the 1970's that it takes a month to break a habit. Habits like smoking or starting a health program are centered around creating new habits to replace existing 'bad' habits. Why not take a look at our daily challenges and focus on establishing behaviours for success rather than just creating tactics to manage them.
Monday
Yes, I am one of those... even as a child, I remember vividly how excited I was for the week to start. Anticipation, opportunity, a fresh start - whatever it was, I couldn't wait for Monday so I could get to school and find out what the week ahead was going to unfold. Though, trust me, over the course of hectic and challenging 20 year career, Monday mornings haven't always held the same spark. This is why my company name reminds me daily that Monday should always hold that same sense of adventure that it did as a school girl.
What Four Mondays means to me
Four Mondays is my opportunity to inspire change, in myself and in others on a daily basis. And in doing so, making each day, each challenge and each stressor an inspiration to achieve more and enjoy more.
