Being a mother is tough business. You have to take care of your family's wellbeing. Balancing between the role of a financial provider and a mother needs special skills.
Here are some tips how to succeed in balancing all those different roles life brings you.
Create a plan and set your goals. Write it all down.
Once it's written down, it's easier to follow.
Schedule time for work. Schedule time for your family. Also schedule time for yourself and your own wellbeing. Write everything down on a calendar and stick to it.
Organize your time to maximize your time usage. You might want to write blog posts in advance during the weekend so you can publish them throughout the next week. Whenever you have a break, do something little, seek out new advertisers or meditate, even the small stuff gives you a feeling of achievement and gets you one step closer to your goals.
Accept, that sometimes life just happens and adjust accordingly.
By saying no to one thing, you open the door to say yes to more important matters.
Take responsibility in creating your own opportunities and earn your income. This includes actively promoting yourself and what you have to offer. Don't be shy about your skills. If you get complimented about something you've done, be proud and talk about it.
Mothers usually have great social networks, for example school functions and sports activities, they can easily be used as a source of income.
Also, use various social medias for your advantage. Advertise in Google+, Facebook and Twitter, you might be surprised how many people you can reach.
With thorough planning and sticking to your schedule, you will achieve what you want!
I'm not saying it's always easy, but try to have fun on your journey. If you don't enjoy what you're doing, no one else will either.
