Mindset Monday Quotes

When you find that you’re talking about doing something more than actually doing it, pause and inquire why. Are you talking about it in an effort to get yourself pumped up to do it, or are you talking about it to get a temporary fix—that excitement of sharing what you’re going to do? You know, the whole “I’ll start my diet on Monday” mentality. I call this L.I.P.S.—Living in Pursuit syndrome.

To be afraid of Mondays is to be a slave every Monday.

Today is Monday, a brand new week!! Do you know that you can change your story this week? Have a positive belief and work towards it. Today is the start of this week. How you spend today will determine this week, so use it wisely and start it with a positive mindset.

This is now a well-studied aspect of psychology. Social hierarchies inhibit assertiveness. We talk to those in authority in what is called ‘mitigated language’. You wouldn’t say to your boss: ‘It’s imperative we have a meeting on Monday morning.’ But you might say: ‘Don’t worry if you’re busy, but it might be helpful if you could spare half an hour on Monday.’5

Dear Jesus, I have finally found the courage to admit I've craved food more than You. I have wept over giving up food while hardly giving a thought to You giving Your life for my freedom. I've been bound up by feelings of helplessness. I've been angry that I have to deal with this weight issue and have been mad at You for allowing this to be on of my lots in life. I've made excuses. I've pointed fingers. I've relied on food for things it could never give me. I've lied to myself about the realities of why I gain weight. I've settled and excused and justified my issues. I've been enthralled by buttered bread while yawning through Your daily bread. For all that, I am so sorry. These are not just little issues. These for me are suns -- missing the mark of your best for my life. With my whole heart, mind, and soul, I repent. I turn from the dieting mindset I turn from what I must give up and weep no more. I remove my toe keeping open the door to my old habits, my old mindset, my old go--to scripts. I choose freedom. I choose victory. I choose courage. And above all else, I choose You. Amen.

Girl, get ahold of your life. stop medicating, stop hiding out, stop being afraid, stop giving away pieces of yourself, stop saying you can't do it. Stop the negative talk, stop abusing your body, stop putting off for tomorrow or Monday or next year. Stop crying about what happened and take control of what happens next. Get up, right now. RISE UP from where you've been, scrub away the tears and the pain of yesterday, and start again.....Girl, wash your face!
