So my 2008 goal is going to be to ensure that what I need and want to do has some sort of priority in my life, at least some of the time, as opposed to being fit in wherever free time can be found in between the two full-time jobs of working/employment and mother/wife. I don't have the slightest idea yet of how I'm going to execute this--suggestions are welcome. |
My sister has the same problem too. I suggested to her that she start off by maintaining a diary and writing something everyday - anything. The important thing is to make it a routine and then a habit. Once it becomes a habit, you have a personal time and space of your own. Then you can substitute or add other activities one by one.
