Moms should never settle!

Ask yourself:

Who do I want to be as a mom?
What do I want to do with my kids?
What do I want to do with my life?

That’s where to start.

How To Block Your Time

Time blocking method on a weekly basis:

block out appointments and non-negotiables in your schedule
block out specific time for yourself
time for permission to work, with clear boundaries
date nights with the hubby
devoted time just with the kids
chores that can’t be left alone for too long
fill in the holes with any other devoted time

It really helps you see where your time is going and helps you accomplish so much more! It sounds restrictive, but it actually gives you freedom!

Tips For When You Have Kids

You can often have a friend or family member take your kids on a regular day or time each week. It can be beneficial for everyone involved and helps eliminate distractions.

Keep a running list on exactly what you’re going to focus on for each day. That way, when you’re interrupted or have to take a break for kids stuff, you can come right back and remember quickly what to work on.

Save the biggest projects that need the most mental energy when your children are asleep.
