Make This Your Family Focus for 2010

If you’re like most moms I talk with, life can be pretty hectic with all the things you need to do and keep track of. Your many roles require you to keep many plates spinning at once.

This includes everything from food shopping and meal preparation, after-school classes and regular homework with your child, time with your partner just to check in and catch-up, your own professional and business activities, managing your money, quality time with your child.

Also, handling concerns about your child including his friends, the tidiness of her room, the clothes he wears, planning family vacations that everyone will enjoy. Plus someone in your family may be struggling with a personal difficulty.

Not to mention finding some quiet, fun time to take care of yourself.

What really causes your stress, overwhelm and exhaustion, however, is not the sheer number of tasks. The cause of your stress is that too many times your family doesn’t work well together getting things done can be harder than they need to be.

You may end up feeling as if you’re doing all the work and that you’re not appreciated for all you do.

Yet there is one thing that has the power to transform your conflicts and challenges so that your career and your family can flourish and be sources of joy and fulfillment for you.

In fact, if you make this your top priority for your family during the coming year, you will be delighted with the progress and changes you and your family make.

This one high priority is to focus on creating a joyous emotional connection with everyone in your immediate family.

If you’re like most busy moms I meet, you too often focus on getting things done, managing circumstances and behavior, and unintentionally neglect your emotional connection with the people you love the very most.

Why is your joyous emotional connection with the people in your family so important? Here are 10 ways it will powerfully benefit you and your family.

A joyous emotional connection –

1. Encourages authentic and honest communication with one another.

2. Allows each person to be who s/he truly is.

3. Virtually eliminates conflict, arguments, angry
disagreements, and hurt feelings.

4. Creates an emotional environment in which everyone works together easily and deeply appreciates one other.

5. Transforms how you resolve conflicts so you can more easily work through life’s inevitable challenges, changes and uncertainties.

6. Frees up your creative ideas, energy and resources so you can use them to create whatever you most want in your career, your business, and your personal life.

7. Creates fun family times that are easy and fulfilling for everyone.

8. Brings out the best and most positive in each individual.

9. Empowers you to create a balanced life for yourself, in which you feel nurtured and fulfilled in all areas of your life.

10. Gives you abundant delight, joy and love, which is the very essence of what you want with your family.

Make creating a joyous emotional connection with everyone in your family your highest priority this year and watch the magic begin! I promise you’ll discover a world of delight and ease that will profoundly nurture your heart and soul.

Joyous wishes for the New Year!

Love & Joy!
