3 Things Successful People Do on Sunday Nights

Most people find that they dread Sunday evenings. The almost-time-to-go-back-to-work blues set in and the whole world seems to get a little bit more bleak. Even if you love your job, you’re probably not too jazzed about your weekend being over.
But the secret to truly successful people, of course, is that they never stop working. And the hours between the weekend and the new workweek are almost always wasted. What if you could put them to better use?
Here are a few strategies to get a leg up on the week ahead and set yourself up to be a huge success—or just make sure you use the leisure time available to you to maximize your enjoyment of your free time—which will refresh you best for whatever Monday brings.

1. Have Fun
Successful people understand their weekday time constraints, and so they make sure to pack their weekend full of things that will relax and rejuvenate them. See family and friends. Do your favorite activities. And save something really fun for last. That way you’ll be extra focused on the fun part of Sunday night, rather than the less fun part of Monday morning. End on a high note!

2. Work Out
Never underestimate the power of endorphins. Do a bit of yoga, or a gym class, or a tennis game. You’ll find it centers you for the week ahead.

3. Get Organized
Sit down with your calendar and start to plan things for the coming week. Set yourself goals and task lists. Just make sure not to stress yourself out.
