Fitness, running a business, and mothering?

What do fitness and health, running a business, and striving to be the best mother possible have in common? In our culture, pretty much nothing. In my life, everything. These things are my life, my chiseled focus. Things upon which I dwell and strive to improve.

I have been floundering a bit for the last year and have finally started taking some action. I have noticed that when one becomes more effective in one area of life, the others follow. Because I had no energy, I have been working very, very hard on health and fitness and the culmination of a huge effort was going to the Transformation Domination weekend seminar this weekend. I have come away renewed, reinvigorated, inspired, and ready to start taking action in so many areas of my life. It was everything I had hoped it would be, tenfold. Seriously.

I expected to gain new knowledge about health and fitness. I did not expect to learn how to be a more effective parent and business owner, but this conference was so packed with amazing speakers, there was much coverage of these areas as well, even if not completely intentional on the part of the speakers! We each take away what we see and I can frame things in terms of my life even when the speaker is coming from a different frame of reference. Many are indeed parents, even some moms, so there was definitely some focus on balance and striving to be here for the most important "thing" in our lives.

I am just so overwhelmed right now but I am eager to start sharing so stay tuned as I find the time, while learning to make more effective forward progress in all aspects of importance in my life, to share from the book of notes I took! Yep, I exhausted an entire notebook and more than one pen. I am jazzed!
