Prepping dinner while on a phone call is very common for me as a Mompreneur. It’s a fact that there are going to be times when the role of mom and the role of entrepreneur will intersect. Multitasking is a normal part of my lifestyle. With great intention, for me it’s has become a beautiful thing.
I schedule certain tasks together as part of my daily routine. This really helps me to maximize my time and minimize my stress. Instead of things becoming hectic because I run out of time, I have taken the initiative to combine things such as responding to messages during our homeschool lunch break, driving a child to an activity while scheduling an appointment with a client or crocheting while at sports practice.
To maintain regular work hours, I have a few hours scheduled each day to complete certain tasks for my business. These are considered my business hours. I scheduled them during a time that the children would not need my direct attention i.e. before they rise in the morning, before our homeschool day begins and after our homeschool day ends. It’s a time when I know they are preoccupied with things as well, so I am less likely to be interrupted. Though my hours vary from day to day they have become very routine for us as a family.
Two days per week are consider my work days. On these days, I assist the children with chores and schoolwork in the morning before I begin my work day. I work mainly from home, but I also use this time to work outside of our home…meet clients, restock merchandise at a store, run errands etc.
I use daily routines and my Daily Schedule as a means to balance and complete tasks throughout the day, week and month to make the best use of my time, so that I can take good care of myself, my family and my tasks responsibly. Though there are days when walking in more than one role is just overwhelming, multitasking in this way has blessed me with peace and balance as a mompreneur. Do you have a daily schedule that includes yourself, your family and your business?
