When Christy and I talk we tend to bounce from one idea to another, not always in the most linear way, sometimes leading nowhere, but sometimes leading to extraordinary ideas. And still at the end of the day we manage to get a lot done, a lot accomplished, and have something to show for it.
This is the value of what we have to offer as mom entrepreneurs. Our method might seem absolutely mad to someone not used to balancing quite so many things at one time as we are, but it works for us and we know there are a lot of other moms out there that need to know that even though it might seem like madness, it absolutely isn't! And not only is it not madness, there is a method to it that actually really works!
Our brains as moms have to function in so many ways. We are constantly evaluating what needs our most urgent attention, what can be delayed by 5 or 10 minutes, and what can be put off for even longer and acting on that info. The juggler is a very good example and as moms we literally learn how to juggle single handedly behind our back with three balls in the air, while the other hand makes dinner, calms a crying child, or makes a business call.
This is our life, how we have learned to operate, mostly out of necessity but also because we have figured out that we CAN make it work AND get a lot accomplished. Let's share it with other moms out there that no you aren't crazy, yes you can bounce from one idea to another, yes it is ok, yes we can juggle a lot, and yes, with a little planning, goal setting, and focus, we can be successful mom entrepreneurs precisely because we do things in this way!
