3 Ways to Love You Some You

February 8, 2017 · In: Motherhood

Valentine’s Day is coming up, and for us single ladies it can be a rough time because we don’t have anybody to share it with. But take your focus off the holiday’s intention and just focus on loving yourself regularly. Love you some you.

You don’t have to be depressed and sad because you’re single. No ma’am! It does not have to be that way. You need to enjoy yourself and appreciate yourself in your singleness. So here are 3 tips to “Love You some You” this Valentine’s Day.

MAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF.

I know that as a single mom that can seem impossible. I know you are the only one doing it all. You’re getting up at 6:00am, getting the kids ready, going to work, going to school, cooking dinner, and doing it all over again. But you MUST make time for yourself. You make time for everybody else. Yet, you put yourselves last on that list. I promise there are moments you can create with yourself to practice self-care.

After the kids are down, make yourself a nice bubble bath. Put on some nice music, light a few candles, put some essential oils in that tub and enjoy! Relax and enjoy your own company. That’s your time to destress and get yourself together.

You want to do this so that you’re operating at an optimal level. I know you want to give your best to your children, right? And giving your best to the world is important too.

In order to do that you have to make sure that you’re OK. You can’t be ok when you’re always overwhelmed, stressed, and running around in circles trying to be supermom. So you have to take time to recharge yourself.

That includes reevaluating your goals ever so often. Reevaluate who you are and what you want out of life. When you have your goals present and in front of you regularly, it’s easier to stay focused on them. The goal is not to be the mom whose only caught up in her kids. But the mom who is amazing with her kids and amazing at living her life as well.

CUT THE TOXIC PEOPLE OUT OF YOUR LIFE.

Sometimes you just have to let people go. Unfortunately, some people are just committed to being miserable. They always find something wrong in every situation, always complaining and can always justify their negative perspective. If you have someone like this in your life, stay away (If you want to stay in a positive place). This will only break you down slowly. That negative energy will begin to affect you.

Then there is the person that always has unnecessary drama. They always want to tell you about it or bring you in it. Run! The last thing you need is to be dealing with someone else’s mess.

Finally, there are those that may not be negative or have drama but no matter what they do, they cannot support you. They are the naysayer. The one that always finds a reason why you shouldn’t do something. Or they conveniently bring up all your previous failures or insists on reminding you of something you are trying to move on from. They may even low-key want to see you fail or maybe not, just don’t want to see you surpass them. Drop them with the quickness! It’s a toxic relationship and you are better without it.

Try to keep your space pure. Not just your physical space, but your head and heart space too. Because toxic people will infect you. If you hang out with them enough, you will begin to ask yourself “When did I start believing that? Oh, when did I start feeling like this about myself? When did I start becoming so negative and complaining all the time?” The answer then becomes birds of a feather….(you know the rest).

Take your positive energy and your positive space and move it elsewhere.

KEEP THE PROMISES YOU MAKE TO YOURSELF.

So many times you’ve promised to do things for yourself. You say: “I’m about to lose this weight! I’m going to start this business.” Yet you never make time to do any of them.
That’s because you have become the least important person on your to-do list. Change that. Schedule some time with yourself to relax and go over your goals. Determine the things that can be started or done within 30 days and do it! You set those specific goals for a reason.

YOU ARE SO WORTH IT.

Love you

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!

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.
