It's no secret that moms
often have chaotic daily lives and while raising your little ones and keeping
your personal and professional life in order may often seem like a literal
juggle. You may be longing for solutions that will allow for much needed 'me time.'
There are quite a few healthy ways to unwind and enjoy your well-deserved alone
time, from unwinding with CBD products from Have a Heart to
enjoying a timeless film. What's more, making' me time' is widely considered a
priority for everyone, and not just busy moms.
However, some moms seem
to have all their ducks in a row and while such moms are easy to envy as they
seem to get the most out of every minute of each day, developing powerful time
management tricks is the real secret ingredient. Even though some time
management tricks will take a while to develop, the following will help you
stay on top of your mommy duties while also creating room for essential 'me time'
that would transform each day into a calmer and more comfortable experience.
Rather than hurdling through tasks every day, you should consider these
powerful time management tricks.
Create Time Limited
Tasks
As a mom, you probably
have a million things that you need to get done every day, from tying shoelaces
and reading night time stories to making dinner and tackling career
responsibilities. However, even if you aren't pursuing career goals, there's no
doubt your life is still jam-packed with tasks.
You may not be able to
remove tasks, although, you can better manage how much time you spend on each.
Therefore, limiting time per task will essentially help you create a flowing
daily schedule, which means you will probably be able to locate that much-needed
gap for a well-deserved break.
Accurate To-Do List
Most of us underestimate
the real power of a to-do list. Even though you may have to sacrifice a few
minutes to create an accurate to-do list, following each task will essentially
help you stay on top of your day, every day. You will also be able to avoid
potentially forgetting tasks or neglecting duties. Once you have created your
list, you should keep it somewhere accessible. You could even consider a to-do list app
that will encourage you with reminders and alarms.
Mornings Are Most
Important
Categorising the importance
of each task will help you determine which tasks should be handled first. It is
always best to allocate the most important tasks for mornings as you will
generally be more organised this way. There are several reasons your most
important tasks should be completed in the morning; from having more energy to
getting them out the way. Completing important things first also means you will
be able to gradually relax throughout the day as there will be less weighing
down your mind.
Once you have created a
time management strategy, you can find room for time off, although, it is quite
important to understand that you may not have to include a 'me time' break
every day as the frequency of your self-care time is
dependant on you.
