It's good to know that we're here again this week for another edition of our weekly #ladiesofhive contest #294. Hopefully, we all are doing very well.
To be honest with you, life is loaded with too many responsibilities, there are always too many activities waiting to be fixed. From the time one wakes up from bed in the morning till when you may force yourself back to bed to have some night rest.
There are almost much other things waiting to be attended to. Sometimes, you are confused on what to be done or on what; that has not been done. But all is waiting to be attended to by you if you have none assistance in the house, you just need to try your best.
I'm not a career person, although I have my Bsc in Human Resources Management
But a business woman with many joint daily activities to balance my help and support as a matter of choice for the family. Most times, in my to do list, activities that must be done are there choking me up...(E dey choke..😂).
I have always tried my possible best to complete each day's assignments correctly and completely. I have adopted the process of done and dusted strategy all the time and about those most needed and most necessary must do daily tasks.
For me, this question boils down to being intentional about those things that are most important, those items that are very necessary that they must be done on daily basis or as they come.
The answer is, focus on them and do them. Be it your office work, family needs or taking care of yourself, they're all time demanding, but create time to fix them. It's not compulsory to complete them totally every day, but try your best. Show concern, do not postponed what you supposed to do today to tomorrow, the work will pile up and you will become very weak, achieving none of them at all.
Activities liike ;
Prioritizing the processes of cooking for the family, what's in the menu for the day and how it will be achieved is very important for every woman. I think this is the number one must do in the daily list of every woman or every family. Getting it done on time or you designate some capable hands to represent you to do it well will help too.
Sparing no time for idleness, every hour and period of the day is very inclusive to achieving your daily aims and objectives. If you are in the office, give it the same energy, getting your part of the daily assignment done and on time, so you don't waste another time doing what you would have done earlier.
Like there's someone I know, she's a career mother of a very tender growing children, she had set her limitations and periories about the activities both in her home and at work. That has made her to go for her groceries buyings at the end of every month.
Buying all that the family will need for a period of another one month. She would buy ingredients to make like three different types of soups, she makes her stew, vegetable source, then dish them out in a sizable amounts into her big bowls differently for preservations, she will then stock all of them into their deep freezer, she prepares even moi-moi and stock them that same way.
The family will be picking anyone they wish to eat until the next month ending again. The whole foods will still keep fresh because they have a constant power supply. This gives her the needed space to focus on her career, her self and on other things. It's helpful and stress relief for her and the family. If there are constant electricity where you live as a career mother, you can as well apply her method.
Myself, I do the ones I can do by focusing squarely on anything I supposed to do at each given time and then I create a time to rest, time to read and do my Hive activities since it's one of my daily priorities.
I try to go to bed on time, being busy through the afternoon time. I get into bed early, I hardly sleep in te afternoon, it doesn't come, so I don't sleep in the afternoon. I drinking some quantities of water, eat my food on time, do some walk outs, make sure I'm not worrying about certain things. I speak to myself and calm myself down most times. This is how I live, how I balance my life and take care of my self
It doesn't mean I'm completely satisfying all the aspects of my daily or supposed duties because some days, some weeks I may not appear in Hive because I'm hooked up somewhere trying to finish or to complete one or two stuffs I have not been able to complete on the appropriate time
But after which, i will return back to take my place in Hive, because I love Hive. Life and responsibilities are not joking. One has to take them very seriously so as to arrive at your desired point, else, you may be embarrassed in life. We all Plan so as not to fail.
This is my response to question one,
How do you balance your responsibilities to your family, career and yourself?
