Family first, business second.

So, since my last post I have had a CRASH! - er duh! even the title of my post was so crazy manic... I was skating on verrrry thin ice, and I finally reached the end of my tether last Wednesday (HORRIBLE day - best forgotten!)

At least when I do crash - I then get to pick up the pieces and figure out what went wrong.

And here's my mistakes:
 - I was doing too much
- my focus on my business had put everything else out of balance.


 
As I am a mum: ALWAYS - my 'family comes as a higher priority to my business'... but I had become SO busy that although I held this belief in my mind, it wasn't really the reality of all my actions and I was too over-worked to see it. Yes, my kids always came first - but I was neglecting a few areas (namely the household organisation - and ME! - and yes, poor hubby too...)

I am not throwing in the towel with my business... but I can see that I was putting it in a higher priority than my own needs, and I have to work a lot less on it at this particular point in time.

Obviously this is somehting that will be hard for me to do! - But I'm going to try.

I've reached the point at least of a significant mental-shift... and for now I know I need to focus a lot more on cleaning the house, cooking dinner, going for a walk, playing with the kids... being happy and trying to find that BALANCE that I am always searching for.

A few quiet days are in store for me right now.. not a lot of thinking - just doing the bare-essentials.

I'm sure I will figure things out eventually :)
