Why can’t we be happy where we’re at?
What is there in us that makes us keep striving for the next best thing?
I think we are so preoccupied with our to do lists and productivity, we miss what is really important. Important things don’t fit so easily in productivity boxes. As moms, we feel it. We know taking care of our kids is one of the most important things we can do, and yet, there is very little outside kudos for changing diapers and correcting homework.
Our value and worth don’t measure up in the masculine productive world.
And so sometimes we start to loose our sight of it… the important things turn into To Do Lists. We run through laundry, chores, shopping and don’t stop to celebrate the moments, however small they are. What about celebrating after folding that load of laundry or when you put your feet up for 5 minutes and make yourself a cup of tea.
This week I invite you to celebrate the small things… Anything that is a win for you.
Take the time to slow down and enjoy what is right in front of you. I dare you.
