It’s a myth that there are moms out there that can do it all. There are always some things we have to let slip, and THAT’S OKAY. What’s important is to be intentional with the things that are important to you.

We have some tips for how to be more mindful of your time and fit more things into your day:

1. Prioritize the things that are most important to you and your family, things that you enjoy. These may change seasonally, or for certain days of the week.
2. Learn to say no. Check the task against your priorities and if it doesn’t fit, say no.
3. Have a routine.
4. Set a timer for tasks.
5. Delegate! Let other family members be responsible for chores, or if you can afford to hire help do that. 
6. Give yourself grace.
7. Take care of yourself.

Be a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don’t.
