Being Proactive Rather Than Reactive- The Gift of Time

Had a yarn with another mum today who’s currently not working. We got talking about how having one parent at home doesn’t automatically mean you’re smashing out personal projects or ticking off big goals. What it does mean, though, is you get the gift of being proactive instead of reactive.

You’re not constantly putting out fires or waiting till things hit crisis mode before dealing with them. You’ve got a bit more breathing room to handle stuff as it pops up.

Like, for example—no need to do a frantic, sweat-inducing clean-up when someone texts saying they’re popping round.

Example: Not needing to manically clean your house when someone wants to pop round. :|
