Six Months!

WOW! My last post was back in January! Has it really been 6 months?  Time literally flies. Well, you are probably wondering why a blogger disappeared from the scene for six whole months.  Sometimes you have to try a few different things and work on yourself.  During my "timeout" from blogging, I have realized three things in becoming the Best Me I can be.  I hope they help you become the BEST YOU!
1. Give others space to grow.
2. Do not procrastinate.
3. Know your worth.

NOTE: All Clothing in this blog can be found on www.bestyoubyhts.com

#1 As a MOM - give your children space to grow.

Being a mom is not easy. I am one of those moms who was determined to help my kids. You see, my mom was totally amazing, but I would get so frustrated when I would ask her to tell me what to do, and she said, "you will figure it out".  I realized that she would never tell me so I figured it out. During the younger years, I tried to help my kids in rebellion of what my mom did. Now that they are adults, I have found that I'm much like my mom. She was a very wise woman indeed! When I let go of trying to play Ms. Fix-It, my adult children were given the opportunity to growth as the awesome adults they are. They literally gained their wings. Being a mom is so easy for me now, because they have stepped up to the plate and are embracing adulthood most amazingly.

#2 As a professional - do not procrastinate.

It was difficult coming back from my February vacation. I had tons of work to do to get caught up, but my mind and body were still in vacation mode. I became the ultimate procrastinator.  If you know me, I like to get my work done by front loading my week so my Thursdays and Fridays can be low-scale chill days. Well, I fell off that bandwagon. I procrastinated most of the week and was working up to 8PM on Fridays to finish what I should have done already.  It was stressful. I lost productivity in my week and sometimes had to work on the weekend to make it up.  I fell like I was working all the time, but my workload was the same.  As soon as I started managing my procrastination, I found time to work out and enjoy life.   My week became less stressful and I wasn't working on weekends. To overcome procrastination, I created both a daily and weekly to-do list. For larger tasks, I spread them out over three days so I could get other things done.  Planning was the key to healing me of my procrastination habit. 

#3 As A woman - know your worth.

I've always been a confident woman, but I tend to have a lot of empathy for others.  This empathy allowed me to tolerate a little more than I should have in relationships.  What I've found over the last few months is that I have been very wrong.  Your worth is not about how you treat others.  Your worth is all about how you love and value yourself. You can be confident but still have to work on realizing your self-worth.  Self-worth is defined by both your potential and who you are.   Only you can set that value. When you know who you are and set the expectation to be treated accordingly, you know your worth. Over the last few months, I have been working on my "value".  I have re-evaluated my goals for myself and my relationships. I'm so proud of the progress I have made and will continue to make.
