We're going to talk about how you need to stop managing your time and manage something. Instead, I'm going to talk to you about how you can take this frustration that you may be feeling with. How your day to day activities are going, how frustrated and overwhelmed you might feel with how you're showing up for yourself and for other people, and how you can move in a better direction. You have the power right now to really make things significantly different, to feel pleased with how you're showing up, to have more optimism, more positivity, and to just feel better about yourself and about how you're performing in your life.

Today we're going to talk about how you can show up better for yourself and for your family, and for your loved ones and, and all of that stuff. So, in order to start, I want to just take a moment and I want you to think about a typical day in your life. This is all about you. Thinking about, how does your day look? When do you typically get up? What do you usually do first? What kind of schedule do you have? Do you have to go to work part-time or full-time, or not at all? Are you taking care of children full-time? Are you doing half and half? Some of our audience, I know even homeschool, so that might be the circumstances that you're in. Who are you caring for? What appointments do you typically have in a day or in a week? What are the demands on you? And just kind of step back from your own life. Act like a third party observer. And watch your life for a moment, those things that are daily being expected of you by the people around you and the things that you expect of yourself. Now, hone in a little bit, look more closely, how are you feeling during all these activities? When you get up, are you energized or are you groggy? Do you feel excited about your day or frustrated or worried or overwhelmed when you come to breakfast or make breakfast? When you interact with your family, when you go to your appointments, how is that looking for you? How are you showing up in all of those places? Are you at your best in these appointments and in these interactions? Do you wish you could be accomplishing more? Do you feel like you're falling short? Do you get frustrated, overwhelmed, or just wanna check out entirely at some point or at multiple points during your day? Well, if you are like me, then the answer to some of those questions is yes. It's hard to show up the way that we wanna show up for ourselves and for other people all the time. And what you've been told, maybe perhaps this is what I was told for a really long time, was that if I could just manage my time better, I would feel better. Things would go better if I got up earlier, if I scheduled things better, if I kept myself to the timeframes that I had laid out for myself for different activities. If I didn't try to get so much done in a day. You know, back in the day, this will kind of age me, but I owned a Franklin planner and that thing was not cheap and my husband and I really tried to use those religiously well. The consequence of what we've been thinking about and describing in terms of our day is if you're less than satisfied with how these things are going for you, here's the problem that we create for ourselves. Not only do we feel frustrated and overwhelmed by how the day is going and how it's looking and how ...
