If you are anything like me, you probably spend way more time on social media than you should. For those of you who pay attention to the hashtags themed to a specific day of the week, Monday Motivation is always a popular one to get your week started—as it is always among the top trends (nearly 90,000 tweets as of the writing of this article) each and every Monday.

If you feel like I missed one you really like, feel free to tweet them @NexGoal and we will make sure to include your most motivational posts in next week’s article!
