Time Is Not Enough

Money is not enough is an issue that almost everyone will agree with that statement. Now, my issue is Time is not enough! Recently I find that my time is not enough especially I need more rest after my pregnancy. Many friends remind me to take more rest when I feel tired and don’t work too hard. I really appreciate their concern and many thanks to them.

I take their suggestion and slowly adjust my time. I work in the morning, take nap in the afternoon and work again in the night time. I have the privilege to take nap as I’m a working at home mom. That’s really great compare to my first pregnancy. With this arrangement, I feel more energetic and not easily feel tired.

However, don’t you feel weird or miss something in my time arrangement? Yes, you didn’t see the time set for my family and kids. Well, initially my time of work is from morning till evening and my night time is for my family and my lovely daughter – Baby Moon. But just like I mentioned above, I need to take nap so that won’t feel tired easily, I have no choice but to work in the night time. I can’t work after my daughter sleep because that’s too late for me and not good for my condition.

You suggest I don’t work in the night time but spend time with my family? Then I just leave the morning slot which is not enough time for me to run my internet business. I have shared in my previous post – Time management for Mompreneur that moms who work at home need to have a to-do list. I have my to-do list and always want myself to stick to  the schedule. I think this is a discipline that a work at home mom need since there is no boss around. Too many excuses tend to make people lazy and it’s not healthy for running a home business.

Let’s back to my time for my family and daughter. Sometimes I feel sorry I don’t have enough time for my daughter. She has to do her activities like watches her favourite shows and play the toys by herself.  I really thank to my mom who spend time with my daughter all the time, taking good care of her and accompany her when I’m doing my work. Due to this reason, I have tried to shorten my to-do list and sorry if you didn’t see me visit your blog or say hi to you. I can just focus on the main must-do-task so that to have time with my daughter. I don’t feel sorry to my love one (my hubby) temporarily as he is at business trip overseas and not in town. It cuts my guilty of not being a good wife. Hehe..

I also spend quite some time to brainstorm and working on my own program. There are moms who need my help on get them started their home business and I don’t want to keep them wait too long and disappoint them. Good news is I have done major part for the program and there are still some technical issues yet to finalize. I will try to settle those issues faster so that my mom friends can start to learn and earn through the program.

I hope I can find a good solution to balance my work and my family during my pregnancy. Now I seem spend too much time sleeping.. ZZzzz… Haha.. Do you have good suggestions for me?
