Are you familiar with this picture: it's the end of the day, the kids are finally in bed, and the moment you have been waiting for all day is finally here - you sit down on the sofa, turn on the TV and just stare. You have no energy for anything else, just to sit there doing nothing. Oh. This feels good, doesn't it? Maybe you even made yourself a bowl of popcorn, or maybe…
When talking about healthy living, we usually connect it with eating and exercising. For me, it is so much more. Yes, it is a lot about what we put in our mouth, and if we move our body or not. But I feel that it is also about the way we feel, behave and what other things we consume. There is no arguing that changing my diet and removing all the sugar from my life made…
Procrastination. Such a long word. A word that makes you feel like you did something wrong. Procrastination. Hard to say it, but so easy to drift into. Procrastination. Every time that I don't do what I should be doing I hear it shouting in my head, PROCRASTINATION! It's not easy dealing with it. There were days that I felt it is all I do, which is basically nothing. I got up in the morning, got the kids…
Let me draw you a picture: a woman, nearly 40, married to a great guy, has 3 beautiful and amazing kids. She has all the reasons to feel great and be happy. But She is overweight, tired, not happy, not satisfied, her head is full of voices that she can bearly hear her own. This is me. Well, that was me. Over a month ago I felt so lost, with no direction. I wasn't patient with…
We already know that getting up early in the morning can help your productivity. Well for me anyway. So we want to get up early, to have some quiet time before the kids get up and all hell break loose. But it is not as easy as we think. I mean I would rather sleep to the last minute and not get out of bed. So I found that some little tricks can help me get…
So I love planners. It is not hard to understand. Also, I wrote some posts in which I shared my tips on how to be more productive. Now let me tell you in on a little secret. Some of my days are not productive at all. The reality is that even though I love my planner, notebooks and notepads, I cannot say that I a very productive person. Recently I got asked a question and I…
My days are pretty much the same. I have a morning routine, time to work and in the afternoon the kids come home and it is what I call “family time”. Sometimes they go to friends, sometimes their friends come over to our house. They each have an afterschool activity once a week, so we usually have pretty busy afternoons. Recently I noticed that on days that they come home and have nothing to do…
Every morning it was the same story, the fighting with the kids about what to wear, what food they want to take to school. Then I'm having trouble deciding what to eat for breakfast, followed by not a very productive morning in the office. Do you feel the stress building up? That made me want to stay in bed. I really had difficulty getting up in the morning. I used to let my husband deal with…
When I heard the name of Elizabeth Gilbert’s new book I knew I had to have it. “Big Magic” what a great name. I didn’t know what it was about, but I knew I needed to read it. This feeling that you get in your stomach when you know that you have to do something and you cannot really say why- I had it! I read three of her books and loved them. But with this…
Birthdays are so fun. Too bad they come only once a year and that they last only a day. Oh well. As you can probably guess, I recently celebrated my birthday. Due to the fact that next year is going to be a round number, I decided not to go all out with partying and celebrating. However, I will not say no to presents! My husband, who knows me so well, surprised me with a package from…
