I mean hangover literally. Oh, don’t play innocent! I’m sure at one point in your life you’ve had too much to drink on a Sunday night, even if you knew the work week would being the next day. I know I have. So how do you cope with that headache, general sense of nausea, and […]

Welcome to another Monday, dear readers. If a cup of coffee isn’t part of your morning ritual, then consider picking up the habit. Apparently, there are lots of health benefits associated with the caffeinated drink:
Want a drug that could lower your risk of diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, and colon cancer? That could lift your mood and […]

Welcome to another edition of Monday Madness. Monday Media Madness that is!
Have you watched the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix? Personally, it’s the best of the series yet. But at least one person thinks the movie sucks, because it doesn’t faithfully follow the book.

Whoops, looks like I forgot that last Monday was… Monday. It’s the first time in recent memory I didn’t post the weekly dose of Monday Madness on time. Sorry ’bout that folks.

A few weeks ago, a potential client approached me regarding a freelance design project. After some quick negotiations via SMS, where I committed, he promised to give his final decision a couple of days later. It’s been more then 20, and I’ve yet to hear from him.

For this Monday, I’ll help you get some work. If you’re beginning the work week without any commitments, now’s the perfect time to look for a client and start marketing your skills!
The Internet is a great tool for freelancers to search for contracts, but the convenience comes at a cost. There are actually sites out […]

I’m learning the hard way that good sleeping habits are crucial to productivity. Even if mind over matter does work, there are limits to how much you can push yourself.
Last Monday, I was writing a few articles. The previous night saw a mere three hours of sleep. I was so sleepy that no matter how […]

Two weeks ago, we established that Mondayitis is inevitable; you either fight this reality or accept it and use it to your advantage. And it doesn’t matter what day you start your work week on, Mondayitis will still be there.
But this doesn’t mean you have to start every work week on Monday. In fact, here’s […]
