When Juggling Work and Being a Mommy Leaves You Drained, Remember This

“I choose to be unstoppable. I am bigger than my concerns or worries. The strengths of others inspire me daily. I focus on my goals and trust my intuition and live a courageous life.” – Christie Kennedy

You are the only person who can determine your success in life. No teacher, parent, significant other, or friend can dictate what’s right for you.

The expectations of others can hold you back. You are the keeper of your life and how you choose to live is up to you. One day, you’ll get where you want to be.

I promise. 

You’ll earn your degree, get your dream job, pay off your loans, and buy a house. Everything takes time but your success has no time limit.

The biggest lessons I’ve learned came from people telling me no. I didn’t get what I asked for, I got what I worked for. 

Everything I ever wanted, I own. Never expect something to be handed to you. You must work hard as hell to get what you want. 

I own my success. Thank the people who gave you an opportunity, saw your potential, took a chance on you and helped you become successful.

They didn’t hand you anything, but they gave you a way to achieve your goals. 

Work in silence. Never boast. Work month after month in silence as you slowly make it. Success is not delivered to people whose work ethic comes from vanity. 

Be on time and never slack. The kind of work ethic that stands out is the one that exceeds standards.

Be on time for work and work hard – don’t just give the minimal effort. 

There will be people watching who can help you grow towards success. They will only help the ones who work hard.

Find what you love. You won’t feel like you’re working if you’re doing something you love. Find a purpose in whatever work you do. Your calling is out there. 

Work even when you don’t feel like it. The days when you don’t want to put in the effort are the ones where you need to work harder. 

Wake up. Kick ass. Be kind. Repeat. My absolute favorite motto. 

Work hard and humbly every day. You will succeed.
