The most important thing about setting out to achieve your goals is to keep taking steps forward. But it is not about doing everything to a formula: there are no hard and fast rules as to how to achieve success. With your hectic day-to-day life as a mum, you already know all about being flexible. You are able to adapt easily when the need unexpectedly arises and ongoing positive progress will drive you on. If you feel you’re always taking steps forward no matter how small the step, you will find that this is a powerful motivator to achieve your aspirations and so much more.

Across The Divide
There’s a gulf between progress and perfection. If perfection is the ‘perfect’ way of doing it, then it’s not always right for everyone to do it this way. There are a multitude of things to factor into your path to being a successful mum. Of course, every single mum is different: her situation, pressures, aim and desires. In the long run, it doesn’t matter how you’re making progress – the important thing is you are. Establish goals that are within your grasp and don’t try to be overly ambitious; you won’t get anywhere setting the bar too high and stalling on take-off can really knock your confidence and motivation.

Enjoy The Ride
It’s important to make the distinction between getting there and how you get there. You can map out and plan as much as you like, but life isn’t like that. Even the best laid plans can be thwarted, as there is always something to throw you off track and take you on an unexpected detour. As long as you achieve your goals, the journey doesn’t matter. It’s the arrival at success that’s all important.

Nobody Is Perfect
The way you achieve your goal doesn’t have to be perfect. Don’t be put off by the opinions of others as you aim for success and don’t feel like you have to measure up to other mums.  It’s important not to judge yourself harshly by other people’s standards or misguided concepts of what you ‘ought’ to do and perfection. Success is not about an endless contest with other people. It’s about you and your ability to achieve and triumph. Don’t get trapped in a life of endless comparison and competing. Be yourself and have the strength and confidence to live the life you want and deserve on your own terms.
