One minute at a time
Three kids is a lot of kids. I’m not complaining, it’s just that I often find myself struggling with time management and appropriate levels of rest. Sure, there are some things I can’t control-babies wake up at night sometimes, toddlers throw random fits, etc.., but when I find myself throwing the “poor Miguel” pity party of how will I ever have enough time to rest/clean/work/shit or whatever else I have to take a step back and see how much energy I’m wasting worrying about having time. In short-I waste time worrying about not having enough time-pretty ridiculous when we look at it from a step away right? I’m sure you have moments where it feels like there aren’t enough hours in the day. You might not have three kids (you might have zero, or 12!) but you undoubtedly have your own obligations and schedules, and your needs might often get pushed aside. I offer you this, take a little time to breathe and slow down. A minute or two spend calming your mind is a much better investment than constant worry about not having enough time. Also, take some time and notice social media and the space it consumes in your life. See how we can take our time back a minute at a time? Small changes make a huge difference. Overthinking isn’t conducive to mindfulness, so knock that shit off (Miguel).
Party on,
