The pressure of being a super mom never seizes, if nothing,
it intensifies as your children grow up. Your super powers have to be
omnipresent and ever-adjusting to solve any and every problem, no matter how
insignificant or insurmountable it is. Being a productive mom is probably one
of the biggest challenges you’ll ever face, but don’t let that discourage you,
on the contrary, let it inspire you.
Every mom has her own set of survival tips that help her and
her household function, but there are some ground rules that you should always
keep in mind, no matter what. There are some things you can do to be a super
productive mom and we’ll share them with you now.
Be a Goal Setter
This can be a good advice, not just for being a productive
in your mom responsibilities, but in life in general. Knowing what you need to
do in a day and having it in writing will save you from the stress of
overthinking and forgetting to do something important. We always suggest setting 3-5 goals in a day
that are possible to achieve and don’t pressure you to scramble for time. Don’t
go to the extreme of writing down a bunch of things to do and then getting
annoyed when you see that you can’t get it all done in one day. You don’t need
any extra stress, so don’t inflict it upon yourself. Prioritize and set out to
do all the most important things and everything else you manage to do will just
be an additional plus.
Plan, Plan Some More and then Make a Schedule

Have Fun Outside
It’s becoming increasingly more difficult to separate your
little ones from the technology and distractions it offers, but it’s vital to
do so. Getting out and breathing in some fresh air will do a world of good not
just for your children, but for you as well because you shouldn’t be cooped up
in the house. It’s incredibly easy to get stuck in chores and helping your kids
with homework and forget that the outside world even exists, except when you
have to go to the supermarket or drive to school. Spending time with your
little ones in your backyard or in a park enables them to socialize and it helps
you to take a break from all the obligations that will still await you when you
come home. Your kids should spend time outside daily and you should join them, to
play, to talk and make friends with other mothers, to simply breathe in
something that’s not the smell of a cleaning product or diapers.
Find Time or Yourself and Your Sweetheart
Whether you choose to believe it or not, parents have a
tendency to lose all intimacy when children come. It takes a lot of time and
dedication to keep the marriage alive, but that is equally important as it is
to be a productive and good mother. No matter how busy your schedules are, you
and your partner should do all in your power to spend some quality time
together, that will keep your relationship afloat and remind you that the
parent role isn’t the only one you’ve got. Staying close and talking about other
things than children will enable you to have your life divided in thirds – you,
your partner and your children. Speaking of you,
make time to dedicate to yourself. Don’t make excuses, don’t feel guilty,
don’t hesitate to spend some time doing what you love – be it reading, hanging
out with close friends (hint: don’t just talk about your little ones no matter
how wonderful they are), doing yoga or simply doing nothing, just find time to
do that.
Being a super mom doesn’t mean doing everything flawlessly
and always on point, you’re just a human after all, mistakes will happen, and
that’s ok. All you need to do is give it your best shot, not panic and
understand that being productive isn’t always about the quantity of the things
you’ve done, but how well you did it. – Adam
