The Sunday Reset: Preparing Your Workspace for the Week Ahead
Share
The Sunday scaries are real. But here’s the secret: a workspace reset ritual can ease the dread and set you up for a productive, focused week.
Think of it as self-care for your desk — and your mind.
Why the Sunday Reset Works
A messy desk equals mental clutter. By dedicating a short Sunday ritual to organizing, you:
Clear distractions before Monday hits
Create visual calm that supports focus
Set the tone for an intentional week
It’s not about perfection. It’s about starting fresh.
The Steps of a Sunday Reset
-
Declutter – Remove last week’s notes, trash, or snacks.
-
Wipe Down – Clean your desk surface and tech gear.
-
Restock – Refill pens, sticky notes, and snacks.
-
Plan Ahead – Open your calendar and mark key tasks.
-
Add Calm – A candle, plant, or playlist to set the vibe.
This 15-minute ritual reduces Monday stress dramatically.
The Psychological Boost
When you arrive at your desk Monday morning, you’re not greeted with chaos. You’re greeted with clarity. That small change reduces overwhelm and builds momentum from the first hour.
Make It Yours
Your Sunday reset doesn’t need to look like a Pinterest board. It just needs to feel restorative. For some, that’s organizing. For others, it’s journaling or lighting a candle.
Reset, Recharge, Repeat
The Sunday reset isn’t just about a tidy desk. It’s about reclaiming your week before it begins.
