As a new mom, professional, wife and community volunteer living on limited sleep and coffee – focusing can be hard. However, when I get overwhelmed I also think about working strategically – where can I get the most out of my time.
Earlier this fall my “worlds” collided. It was a moment that you get perspective – what can I and should I be focusing on.
The Junior League of Dayton, an organization to which I’m proud to belong and spend a lot of time with, is working on a campaign to engage our members on why we joined the League – and what we believe it does for our community.
At the same time, Safe Kids USA and our local Safe Kids Greater Dayton coalition, was engaged in a we believe campaign regarding childhood injury.
Between these two groups and the work I do as at Dayton Children’s and most importantly, as a mommy, I started to think…truly…what do I believe? Where do I believe my time and talents are best spent? What can I focus on that meets all of the competing demands out there – while realizing a true impact. Do I have to segment my life into different categories or can all of my passions work in concert with one another?
I saved this blog post until now because I love the newness brought on by the holidays. It’s a time of year to learn from family and friends about priorities and then pledge in the new year to refocus your personal mission.
