3 Traits Every Successful Single Mom has in Common

November 2, 2016 · In: Motherhood

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I could make a commission (at no additional cost to you) on your purchases through my links. Read my full disclosure here.

Before I had my kids I used to wonder how a successful single could make it work? I would say to myself: “How in the heck does she work and go to school. Her kids look good, she looks good and she stays on the social scene like it’s easy.”

Now I understand it’s just all in a days work. I realize now that the only difference between the successful single mom and the one that’s struggling is perspective. The way you view yourself and your situation can make the difference in if you are successful or not. That’s the thing about success. If you believe you can be successful and live a great life then you can.

If you are always complaining about your life and viewing yourself as a victim of your circumstances, you will always be in a state of lack. Because you have already convinced yourself to fail. You have to be confident in the fact that you are phenomenal, you can do anything you put your mind to, and you can the life you desire.

[See: The Key to Confident Parenting]

Just like anything else, success in an intentional decision that we make daily. We DECIDE that we will be the best parents to our children and provide them with the best life possible.

Here are the 3 traits every successful single mom has in common.

We are persistent.  We work hard to provide for our children not taking no for an answer. So that means you have to make some sacrifices. You may have to eat at home when you really wanna go out. That means often being the friend that can’t attend events because you have priorities to take care of. That means you work twice as hard as you normally would to make things happen. Listen if you want it, you have to work for it. Set the goal and don’t stop until you get it.  

We stay positive…because nobody likes a negative Nancy. We don’t have time to complain because we’re too busy being grateful. It’s hard for us to see what statistics say because our blessings are clouding our vision. Speaking of vision, we have one. We know what we want our life to look like and we only accept that. Anything else is counterproductive.  

We are not prideful. We are not above asking for help when we need it. We are not too good for thrifting, couponing, carpooling or downsizing to make things work. You never know where your help is going to come from so don’t be afraid to do some things you may not have had to do in the past but trust me humility will take you further than pride ever will.

First off, forget them people! Respectfully… Bu First off, forget them people! Respectfully…

But, I get it!  Most times we lack confidence worrying about other people’s opinion on this or that, but… 

- Stop trying to prove people wrong and prove yourself right! This is about you. You overcoming your fears. You finding the audacity to be great. You pursuing YOUR best life.

- Surround yourself with people that pour into you. Having the right support system is essential. It helps you ignore the noise around you. Join an online group, meetup with positive people local to you.

- Figure out the area you lack confidence in and build yourself up in that area.

- Feel the fear and do it anyway! You gotta just push through. Keep working. Keep showing up. Keep building.

Save this post and reference it when you feel self doubt creeping in.

It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a product It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a productive week! 

Here are a few things I do to make sure the business and the babies are setup for success:

- Write down everything I need to get done this week on Sunday. I literally do a brain dump of all the things.

- Then I prioritize these things from most important to least! …because let’s be real I wanna do everything but there’s only so much time in the day 😂 

- Then I schedule the first 3 things in my planner for Monday. I like to see it here and put in Google calendar.

- I plan, shop, and prep all my meals for the week on Sunday too. Because who got time for “What y’all wanna eat?” everyday lol 

- Lastly I’m trying to make room for IG this week because that hasn’t been a priority. But @planoly is coming in clutch for me.

So I’m implementing the strategy: if you fail to plan, you plan to fail! And I’m planning to get it done this week!!!

Share this with an entrepreneur that could use it!

When I left corporate, it was for my kids! I was When I left corporate, it was for my kids!

I was tired of paying 2 mortgages in daycare cost, working all day and only seeing them for a few hours in the evening. Then, the hassle I’d get when I needed to take off for them!

#Workingmoms don’t get enough credit!!!! It’s a JOB in itself juggling it all…..let’s not get into the last 2 years. 🙄

My plan was to make it through their daycare days, but I done got out here an built an empire!

Don’t tell me God ain’t good!!

So, yeah. I’m gonna be right here, taking care of my babies.

Working moms, stay at home moms, work at home moms, bonus moms, expectant moms…….all y’all, I see you!
