However, some moms seem to have all their ducks in a row and while such moms are easy to envy as they seem to get the most out of every minute of each day, developing powerful time management tricks is the real secret ingredient. Even though some time management tricks will take a while to develop, the following will help you stay on top of your mommy duties while also creating room for essential 'me time' that would transform each day into a calmer and more comfortable experience. Rather than hurdling through tasks every day, you should consider these powerful time management tricks.
Create Time Limited Tasks
As a mom, you probably have a million things that you need to get done every day, from tying shoelaces and reading night time stories to making dinner and tackling career responsibilities. However, even if you aren't pursuing career goals, there's no doubt your life is still jam-packed with tasks.You may not be able to remove tasks, although, you can better manage how much time you spend on each. Therefore, limiting time per task will essentially help you create a flowing daily schedule, which means you will probably be able to locate that much-needed gap for a well-deserved break
Accurate To-Do List
Most of us underestimate the real power of a to-do list. Even though you may have to sacrifice a few minutes to create an accurate to-do list, following each task will essentially help you stay on top of your day, every day. You will also be able to avoid potentially forgetting tasks or neglecting duties. Once you have created your list, you should keep it somewhere accessible. You could even consider a to-do list app that will encourage you with reminders and alarms.Mornings Are Most Important
Categorising the importance of each task will help you determine which tasks should be handled first. It is always best to allocate the most important tasks for mornings as you will generally be more organised this way. There are several reasons your most important tasks should be completed in the morning; from having more energy to getting them out the way. Completing important things first also means you will be able to gradually relax throughout the day as there will be less weighing down your mind.Once you have created a time management strategy, you can find room for time off, although, it is quite important to understand that you may not have to include a 'me time' break every day as the frequency of your self-care time is dependant on you.
