Parenting comes with no shortage of decisions and stresses, both big and small. One of the trickiest parts of being a parent? Knowing when to say yes and when to say no.
You want your child to have a full life with plenty of extracurriculars, but you also don’t want to overschedule them.
So, how do you juggle it all without burning out? A family mission statement.
A family mission statement helps you get clear on what matters most, guiding your decisions about how to spend your time and energy. It gives you the confidence to say yes to what aligns with your values and no to the things that don’t.
I know this approach can be a game-changer; I’ve used it within my own family. By defining our family’s purpose, we’ve created a framework for making decisions that feel right, rather than reacting to every single request that comes our way.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the demands on your time, creating a family mission statement is a simple but powerful step to take back control. If you need help developing one, I would love to help you.
