Welcome to the 31 Days of Mom Mojo – Tackling Time Management.
It is no secret, we all wish we had more time to get more done and were more motivated. This is a HOT topic with the moms I work with and precisely why moms have loved my Weekly Household Planner so much. You have a list of exactly what needs to be accomplished on a particular day, you get to cross it off and feel like you accomplished something! The only catch is managing your time in order to find the time to get the tasks done.
Ladies, let’s face it, we need to find a balance that fits us, our family, our current season of life.
Finding balance juggling it all is what we all want.. We strive, dig for more information, ask other moms – we waste a lot of time complaining rather than changing our approach! Yes, I called us ALL on the carpet.
We love to complain rather than change.
Well, buckle your seat belt because this month, in 31 days I will take you on a journey to take back your time, find a productive daily plan that fits your style and give you a feeling of satisfaction each day. Well take a look at finding ways to keep your energy through the day, tackling time wasters, finding your motivation and making intentional decisions around who gets to spend your time.
So today, one thing only is required to get you started on your journey. In order for you to make any changes you need to be rested and ready to go – so no more late nights. Tonight, you need to get to bed early. If you normally are up until midnight – get to bed by 11. Try to aim for at least an hour earlier than you’re normally in bed.
This is one area you CAN change right now. If there’s laundry that needs folded – go to bed. If you find yourself on Pinterest and the minutes are ticking away – go to bed! There is hardly anything more important to your body and the needs of your family than a mom who has had a good nights rest. You cannot keep going on empty fumes and so many of us do just that. You deserve a better start to our day and so does your family.
If you are ready to start making a change, do this one thing today!

Aim to be up before the sunrise – really, it’s not that early this time of year!
If you could get up 15 minutes before your family, what would you do?
