Keep Business Simple. 1/2 Cup of Dreamseeds at a Time.

During the holiday season I personally feel like my business takes over my life some days, and gets neglected other days.

It's tough to keep on task when extra things just have to be taken care of so that you and I can throw a beautiful celebration for our families, and create a treasured memory for our children.

I feel it too. It's CRAZINESS!So, as I take deep relaxing breaths, lots of phone calls from other overwhelmed moms, and a shot in the arm of inspiration from my best friends... I grab some clarity out of the air.

"You can only put 1/2 cup of popcorn into the popper at once or the popper stops working."

My sister said that to me the other day.

It's true. The popper is designed to stop if too many seeds are dumped into it.

I say words like "dumped" on purpose. Because that's what we do to ourselves sometimes.

We pile it on so suddenly, and so completely that we end up digging our way out just so that we can BREATHE!

So your inspiration for the day is:

Figure out how YOU can take the proverbial measuring cup of life, and level it off so that your popper can handle it.

Learn to say "No" even if it's to yourself.

Fit the business in. 2 hours per day. Don't let it turn into 5 hours per day. It's not suppose to run you, you are suppose to run IT.

I hope you're inspired!

We need each other.
