It's easy to become passionate about an idea, but it can quickly fizzle if you a.) don't stay focused or b.) get discouraged.  

So today we are going to dive into staying focused when starting a business. 

Working from home sounds like the ideal, right? You get to stay at home in your jammies, get some work done, maybe a load of laundry, hang out with your kids. Easy peasy? Nope. No, it's not. 

Working at home, especially with kids, is a fine balance of time and home management. It's all about telling your time where to go. 

Just like at the beginning of the month when you make a budget, you also have to budget your time. In order to see business growth and success this is something you have to do daily. 

This week we have been talking about becoming a Work at Home Mom, what my journey has been like and some things you can do.

Yesterday I talked about how one of the ways I schedule in work time is by getting up a little earlier. I am not talking about 4:30 or 5 in the morning, although I have done that, I am talking about just 15-30 minutes before my kids get up.

You can accomplish so much, but you have to maximize that morning time.

This is day five in a series 30 Days to Start. This week we are focusing on the process of getting out of debt.

I have noticed a trend among my frugal living fiends. It's a common theme that I think ties us all together. It is the side hustle. 

I think it is because we all realize that clipping coupons, making all your meals from scratch, living without cable and new cars and magazine subscriptions and vacations will only get you to a certain point. 

Can you make money blogging? How do you make money blogging? Those are the two questions I get the most when I tell people I am a blogger. 

I was sitting at my computer last the week, the very computer I am typing on right now, when my oldest son walked up to me. 

"Mama, do you want to play?" he asked. 

Ry is only 2.5 so it comes out more like pfwaaaayyy than play.
