On a daily basis, we tend to put our own needs last, reacting first to what’s “urgent” (though not necessarily important), and getting mired down in everything that needs to be done without regard to whether we need to be the one doing it. ⁣

Let’s not forget: 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝗺𝗮𝗺𝗮, 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀.

How, though, do you actually step into your greatness and use the precious moments God has given you to harness your gifts without getting distracted by those pesky, urgent tasks that keep you from tending to the truly important ones? ⁣

The answer, of course, is outsourcing. Outsourcing is your friend.

It’s okay to ask for help. It’s okay to use Instacart, to hire cleaners, to have someone cook for your family a few times a week, etc.

Find what on your list doesn’t need to be done by you, and outsource it. Remember that every time you choose to use your gifts instead of wasting time doing things others can do for you, you’re creating your ideal mom life.
