As a mom, there is always an important date to remember, whether it’s doctor’s appointments, PTA meetings, sporting events, etc. If you wanna be fancy, there are other apps you can implement, like Todoist and Goodnotes. Delegate Tasks Whenever You CanIf it’s in the budget, consider hiring out time-consuming tasks you don’t particularly like. Housekeeping and laundry services aren’t as expensive as you might think. It might be worth looking into, depending on your finances and how important it is to free up some of your time.

But to summarize, it’s a strategy you can use to prioritize tasks when you feel overwhelmed, or even as an everyday tool.Photo by Ivan Samkov: pexels.comEstablish RoutinesBuilding and maintaining a routine will not only help you to manage your time better, but it will also help your family to do the same.

Make Use of Your VillageYou have too much on your plate to be passive about asking for help. If you are a single parent, or if you don’t have a village, consider joining apps like Peanut and MeetAkina to meet other moms like you and build your own village from scratch. There are people out there who want to help, you just have to find them!Practice MindfulnessStay off TikTok until you finish your to-do list. The distractions will be there when you’re done. Keep a JournalKeeping a journal can be helpful because it’s a record of everything. Take note of what works best for your family and what doesn’t feel like a good fit. This also fits in with practicing gratitude, manifesting the life you want for yourself, and worshipping however you see fit.

This is not to say you should just be a selfish pos who doesn’t ever help others, but know when it’s time to choose yourself and your own goals.
