I always enjoy it when others share their wisdom with me, so here are my some lessons that I have learned as a real housewives of Atlanta.
I have been working at home for years, and jogging a blog for, and in
the coursework of this time I have learned a ton of valuable lessons and
insight with empower network.
Don't Be Obsessed with the Numbers.
As a blogger and mompreneur
I am constantly checking and monitoring my numbers; how lots of Twitter
followers do I have? How lots of Facebook Fans do I have? How lots of
page views did I get today?!? It can drive you nuts and generate a ton
of self doubt, if your stats start to go down. Let it go, focus on
generating quality content and cultivating relationships, when you do
something that you love the rest will fall in to place.
Watch Who You're Friends With.
Historicallyin the past I worked
at establishment where the giant majority of the staff were unhappy and
disgruntled, needless to say this negativity rubbed off on me. Hang
around positive and inspiring people, the energy that they emit is
infectious and when you hang around the right people you will find
yourself feeling motivated and empowered. Can't leave your current job?
Try joining a business group, women's self renewal group of real housewives of Beverly Hills, this will give you the boost and energy that you require to stay upbeat through the difficult and trying times.
Go Outside Everyday.
Being a work at home mom, there's days
that I feel trapped and isolated. When I start feeling this way I do
know it's time to get outside. Whether it's sipping some coffee on my
deck, playing in the sandbox with my daughter, or going for walk being
out in the fresh air always makes me feel refreshed and renewed.
Enjoy the Simple Things in Life.
Keep in mind to cherish the
simple things in life; a great way to do this is to keep a laptop and
write down the tiny occurrences that make you smirk. of those times for
me, was when I went to the New york Conference for Ladies and was
speaking to a woman who I had never met before. When he asked me what I
did, he said, "I know The Work at Home Woman, I like that site, it made
me feel like a million dollars. It's the tiny moments like this that
enrich our lives and make us feel special, keep in mind them by writing
them down.
Love.
Do what you love and surround yourself with the people
that you love. Life is way short to spend 40 hours a week in job that
you detest, or around people that make your skin crawl.
What lessons have you learned as a Work at home mom, blogger or mompreneur? I look forward to your comments!
