Being busy has become something of a status symbol in recent times. It is almost as if we’re in competition to see how much we can cram into a day. Many people never get to clear their desk at work, however many hours they put in. As mums and mumpreneurs, we’re left with multiple responsibilities which we’re constantly trying to juggle. Whereas it was once the norm for children to have just one hobby, now there is pressure to be taking them to an inconceivable number of activities. The message we get is if we don’t manage to do a million and one things in the day,...

But now, it’s time to do a little forward planning. When we’re more conscious about creating joy, we have more perspective about our lives. Rather than dwelling on things that have gone wrong, we can recall the joyous moments in our lives, too. But how can you bring more of it into your life? Here are three ways to help you begin...

January might seem like a lifetime ago, but it was likely that, back then, you set some goals that you wanted to achieve this year. But we never really know what’s going to come our way. Depending on what’s happened, you may find that you’re well on track to achieve your goals or realise that you’ve been blown completely off course by other things that have happened.

Much has been written about the benefits of routines, especially for children. But that doesn’t mean that the same sorts of routines suit everyone. Some people feel safer with a rigid routine that’s followed daily. Others find this stifles their creativity and prefer more freedom. But all of us will have routines to some extent.
