You have permission: why it’s okay to hit the delete button on anything in your schedule as a work-at-home mom
Description
I’ve got a question for you: What would you like to press delete on right now?
Go on, tell me about it.
· Is it a certain sports practice that’s been driving you nuts? (It’s at the most inconvenient time possible to get your kids fed.)
· Maybe a music lesson teacher who rubs you wrong, but you don’t know of anyone else to teach that instrument? (What if I ruined my daughter’s success as a flautist because of a mere personality conflict?)
· Perhaps one of your church volunteer activities that’s gotten to be more and more an exercise in willpower just to show up? (They said they really needed you, but you could really use some downtime, too – if nothing else, to clean the kitchen!)
Whatever it is, we’re going to talk about some strategies for getting out of your can-do-but-hate obligations.
Because newsflash, it’s really important to your overall life happiness to have as few of these as possible.
What you’ll learn:
· Why you should delete vs. manage your time better
· Get off the #momlife hamster wheel vs. run faster
· The only way to fix “doing too much” syndrome is to stop doing a few things
As you reflect back on your week, or mull over the week ahead, where are you seeing the time-and-energy bottlenecks?
Where do you need to press the delete button?
Give yourself the gift of grace and freedom and do it. Hit delete and take a deep breath. Savor the feeling of not having to do it anymore.
Now go live your life with your delete button superpower ready to hand. What three things do you need to delete most this week?
You’ve got this!
