Get Your Monday Moving
Monday morning is back (boo!), so take a little inspiration boost from some of business’s bests to get you through the day!
Monday morning. It’s not often that we as a workforce have anything nice to say about it. I mean, research even shows that we may be more likely to meet our maker on Monday mornings; our inboxes are chock-full from those weekend workers who take the office home with them, the week’s to-do list is looking extremely unappealing and the chances are we were rained on on our way to work.
It can be hard to get going on a Monday morning as the memories of the glorious weekend fade fast into the past and the coffee kicks in. That’s where Midphase come in! We’ve put together a list of inspiring quotes from some of the entrepreneurial greats around the world. Don’t forget, they have to suffer through Monday mornings too!

- “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.
