The main reason I have this site is to provide as much valuable information as possible to my readers while interspersing along the way some of the things I find interesting in and about my life. After all, I feel it is important that you get to know a little bit more about me, which allows you a better idea of where I am coming from.

I’ve been silent here for a week and I don’t like when that happens. I have a number of different topics I plan to share. Life seems to have taken over this last week. My children especially. And, well, they are my priority so I let them.

One of the main reasons I enjoy working from home is because of the freedom and flexibility it allows me in my schedule. This week has been pure chaos. While I may thrive in chaos – this week has been over the top.

On the home front, this week has been full of a birthday party to prepare for, sick children and childcare snafu’s. This week especially, working from home and being my own boss has saved me on the parent front.

On the flip side, my businesses are in full swing and attempting to balance it all this week has gotten the better of me mainly because I made my children the priority, as it should be. All of the to do’s just keep growing and I struggle to catch up. This after my own recovery from being ill for a week. Sometimes mommies and daddies just can’t catch a break!

As in the previous post on Focusing on the Lesson here’s what I choose to focus on: I am reminded that my children are only going to be this small for a short period of time and I want to cherish every moment. My businesses on the other hand are in growth mode and as long as the critical tasks get done on time, there will ALWAYS be more tasks and more work as more growth comes. It’s all in the job description of an Entrepreneur. We multi-task, we balance, and we cherish every moment we can.

Have a great weekend and I’ll be back next week with some strategies for you to implement in your business. Don’t forget to Focus on the Lesson.
