Does your body recoil, do you mentally start tuning out to what you hear next? I think that discipline often gets a negative connotation when it comes to understanding why it’s necessary in achieving any kind of success in our life. However, when we can reframe our minds to view discipline as freedom I think that’s when we can start to really move forward faster on achieving our goals in life.

With motherhood comes a laundry list of responsibilities we blissfully think will get easier as our kids grow. The truth is that with each new stage of parenthood there are different challenges. There isn’t a time when there is magically less to do. We all face exhaustion at one time or another and if we allow it it will set up camp with no sign of leaving.

There are moments where we feel stuck, sad or lonely and then there are other periods where we can’t explain our energy and enthusiasm for life.

Today I’m piggybacking off of that conversation of taking action even when you don’t want to, feel like it, etc. and how when we do the things we say we’re going to do or want to do we start to build confidence in following through on what we say is important.

Sure there are times where our families show appreciation for what we do but let’s be honest, most of the time our time and effort go unacknowledged. It’s just expected that we do the things we do because we’re mom.
