Prep Your Mind

I’m prepping for my week! I’m choosing the story that says {I have time for everything that’s important to me.}
🖤
It would be easy for me to allow the negative mindsets to creep in. It would be a no brainer to allow myself to accept the “busy and overwhelmed” label. We have 7 kids, competitive gymnastics at the start of meet season for Eliza, baseball training that’s beginning for our older boys, a major drama production for Eli with a lead role in only 6 weeks, NOT TO MENTION a full-time business that we are working at intensely right now, meaning oils classes and business meetings multiple times a week.
🖤
But I refuse to let my calendar, and the overwhelm that can come with it, have power over my life! I choose to run my life. I choose to take hold of that power and create a life that gives ME life!
🖤
To do this, I’ve made a life shift. I’m taking it from two ladies I want to emulate... @msrachelhollis and @hol_fit ... Sunday afternoons and evenings are now my time to lay it all out. I prep for the week by going through backpacks, helping the kids lay their outfits out for the school week, making sure everyone has all their gear for practices after school, prepping my lunches, cleaning diffusers, filling our supplement boxes, maybe even taking a detox bath or schedule posts for the week, and then after kids are in bed I do the calendar. That is my opportunity to look over everything with Michael. We make sure we’re on the same page. We talk about things like meal prep & who’s picking up kids which days. Then I make my to-do lists for each day, highlight my top 3 important tasks, set my coffee maker, set up diffusers for morning, and go to bed READY.

My mindset is the first step. Preparation is the second.
