There are 6 common mistakes that create stress and overwhelm for working moms during the holiday season. During this mini-series I will cover each mistake and teach you how to correct it. In today’s episode I dive into mistake #3: not deciding when you will work and when you will not. Without a clear commitment to NOT work, your brain is going to default to always being available and checking email in all the “in-between” moments. In today’s episode, I explain 3 steps to ensuring you only work during the times you planned.
Topics in this episode:
- Why deciding NOT to work is just as important as deciding when you will
- Your brain will remain in default work-mode unless you decide otherwise
- Decide ahead of time, when you will check email on your phone and when you will not
- What do you do when your brain really wants to work at time you don’t want to
- The crucial moment you either follow-through with your plan or you don’t
