Parenting and Family Goals

While many of the readers of the Goal Blog are entrepreneurs, many of you are parents as well, trying to juggle your work and family life.

It is important when setting Goals, that we set goals for all of the areas of our life:

Spiritual
Family
Work
Financial
Health
Social

While we are on the subject, I ran across a great blog for moms that I wanted to pass along: SolutionsForBusyMoms.com I love the post on personality types.

Growth requires seeking out ways of improving every area of your life and for busy moms, this is a great site to get you in the zone of establishing and maintaining a harmonious home environment.

Take some time today and set some small goals you would like to achieve in your family. What are some ways you can create nurturing, positive quality family time? Here are some examples:

Establish a familyGame night
Make dinner together and experiment with different recipes
Take a family field trip
Create a fun family exercise program
Volunteer as a family for a day at a homeless shelter or special needs charity
Don't forget to Establish a date night for 1 on 1 time with your honey

and my favorite:
Establish a routine of going over positives and thank you's with your children about what you're grateful for each day. If not at the dinner table, how about as a bedtime routine. Thank your children for anything and everything they did that day. Catch them doing something good and acknowledge every effort you can find!

How's that for a start?

Live Your Dreams,
