Learnings from my life as a working-mum!
- Take the blame, trash it and move on
- Family first, work comes after
- BALANCE is the keyword
- Parenting is a joint responsibility
- There is nothing like "getting time", you make it
- What matters is a happy life and a house that's lived in
- Choice you made- weighing down your strengths and limitations- will not make you regret
- People judge you because they see you from their shoes, not yours
- Love everything that you do, hence your twin career!
Good list.
ReplyDeleteWell, I would like to add couple of more to that :
-- Don't try to be perfect with everything. Its ok to be imperfect but not ok to be sad :-)
-- Take care of yourself and do what you love to do because life is once for you too.
Thanks Bhoomika. You made good points. The list can actually go on and on. I forced myself to stop at ten lol. Really appreciate your points. :)
DeleteI like this...it's a work in progress.
ReplyDeleteGreat points, and yes, stopping at 10 would not be easy :)
Yes, it's indeed WIP. So does motherhood as a whole - you learn every single day. :)
DeleteIt's work to be a working mum. But you outlined important points Nishana...Family life comes first. ALWAYS.
ReplyDeleteOf course, life is hard as WM. Prioritizing family over work is the best way to balance.
