Wow It has been a while! Figured I had a moment of motivation I’ll jump and add a quick post on where I’ve been 🙂
I’ve been learning to be a new mother to two amazing kids, youngest is going to be 9 months soon and I just let myself take allll the time I needed to get back to “work”. I mark it like that since I love my work so much it doesn’t feel like work.
It has been awesome, stressful, fun, tiring and different. I wouldn’t change it for the world. I am definitely working being more productive and efficient with my time since I feel even more that the days fly by, and my dreams and wants just get bigger but no time to even play with them.
I really haven’t sat still since my youngest was born 🙂 it started with doing the mistake of watching Tidying Up with Marie Kondo on Netflix a week after he was born.. wow Instead of resting I just wanted to declutter my entire place and wanted it now. talk about nesting. Link to her book press on “Tidying Up”
Then we traveled quite a bit with our newborn all the way till he was 8 months. so basically only in the last month I got to stop and think how I want this new school year to look as far as being a stay at home/working Mama.
Firstly to get me out of my work funk I owned calling myself a stay at home/working mama which helped me feel better about not working as much while wanting to raise my kids but also being able to work when I can and ease my way up to it.
After taking the most important course a parent could ever take for their kids’ future at the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential when I was 8 months pregnant with my youngest, I’ve gained the love, confidence and motivation to teach my kids everything I wanted.
Basically, I’ve been busy filling up my plate to make sure I do everything I dream of, getting overwhelmed and reorganizing my schedule to fit everything and slowly slowly discovering great ways to do it all. YUP. it might seem like the obvious choice here to take some things off my plate but I realized that it’s ok, that it’s not easy and I can really grow from all this.
Now, let me tell you what made me believe I can do it all. I’ve been watching/reading and listening to some inspiring speakers lately that really gave me new motivation and perspective how to go after what I want, how to do it all (little by little) and how to create my own world. Here is the order I watched/listened to of my best four vids/podcast from the last three weeks that really have changed how I view things now and I hope will inspire me for a long time!
Mel Robbins the hard truth about making your dreams come true
Mel Robbins on TEDxSF how to stop screwing yourself over
Podcasts Dan Sullivan Create your own world, Because this one wasn’t built for you
