Be Confident And Balance It All With Ease

March 15, 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.

Being a confident mother is the easiest way to balance it all and eliminate overwhelm. How, you ask? Because, when you are confident in your ability to make good choices, prioritize well and be productive you do not allow the stress of it all to overtake you.

When you are confident you understand the necessity to not take on more than you can bear and to take a break when needed.

My secret sauce to it all is that I’m confident in myself and what I do. This confident assurance allows me to not feel obligated to do more than what I am able to do. Part of the reason overwhelm creeps in is because we often committ to obligations we are unable to fulfill. If you can’t do it, don’t say you will.

If you are unsure if you can do it, say that. It is okay to tell people “Give me some time to think about it” or “I can’t answer that right now”.

[Tweet “You are not obligated to give people immediate answers or right now solutions even when they are asking you to. “]

We live in such an on demand type of world until we feel as though we HAVE to give people what they want, when they want it. I must return this email, I must answer tweets, I must give the kids a snack, call my mom back, text my friend back. No. Give yourself a break.

Allow yourself time to do tasks without the pressure of having to do them now. Because guess what? It can wait. confident mom

Being a mother, business owner, and friend, the to do list can get quite overwhelming, however I do as much as I can and I don’t feel bad about what I can’t do. Once I’ve reached my capacity, things get rescheduled and moved around as I see fit. Now this can be risky when you run a business and have clients and customers depending on you. In this case you have to have people that keep you accountable.

Assistants, business partners, and colleagues are all great for this. When you tell people your intentions and put dates on it, usually they will hold you accountable.

This accountability comes with emails, texts, phone calls and visits that will question your status on the intentions you’ve set. So be confident in your ability as a mom and do the best you can to prioritize, don’t accept more than you can handle and do your best to stay happy.

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!
