Maximizing the Minutes!

Something that I read recently or someone told me in conversation… I can’t remember… but it was something about how successful people wake up earlier than the rest of the world and they maximize every minute of their day.    I remember thinking about how much I love my sleep and I was not sure if I belonged in that category.   However, there are plenty of times over the last year that I have been up earlier or stayed up later than usual just to work.    I think when you find something you are so passionate about, and working for yourself, you find yourself working so much more above and beyond than you ever imagined.

I have a long way to go before I will look in the mirror and say my business is a huge success or anything like that…. but I do know that the combination of working and being mama, I maximize every minute of every day.  Sometimes doing more than one thing at a time…. I never watch TV anymore and I don’t even miss it.    If I sit down and watch a movie with my husband it is like a date night, a special treat.    I do enjoy the Today show over coffee and checking my emails.   But I can’t say that I stop what I’m doing, or stretch out on the couch or anything like that.   But hey, sometimes I have caught really inspiring stuff on there!  Like how the mommy-bloggers out there are making money and running businesses just off their blogs… pretty awesome.   Oh speaking of that!  A co-worker of mine just had her blog featured on Parenting Magazine’s top 10 Mommy Blogs!  How cool is that!??  Her blog is Words about Waverly.    I think it is so amazing what blogging is doing for people.

Blogging is just a small part of maximizing my time lately!   I’m even late doing my post today!  But not everyday will be perfect and I’m ok with that.   Success is not measured by money in my opinion…. think about all the people in your life who you consider the most “successful.”   I bet they maximize every minute of the day!   It does not come to you, you have to work HARD for it.   But the process is really the best part.    At least I’m having a blast trying to build this little business of mine….. and the sheer craziness of it all!    I can’t wait to reveal some things that have been going on behind the scenes!
