Lately there have been voices in this crazy world trying to tell me that I am not successful. Some of these are inferences in the media, some of these are literal people telling me I’m not “blank” enough or too “blank”. Many of these are voices in my own head either telling me I’m not enough or allowing me to listen to the voices of others who are saying such things.
Thinking of this COVID year and all of the changes and challenges that have come along with it, I wondered how many mamas out there are feeling the same way. I just want to tell you all that you are ROCKIN’ IT!! This mom thing is wonderful, crazy, scary and difficult. These little humans try us and teach us and remind us what love is…all on the same day…multiple times.
If someone has the gall to tell you that you are not successful for any reason, I am here to tell you that THEY ARE WRONG! It doesn’t matter how many degrees you have or what kind of job you have. It doesn’t matter if you are a working mom or a work your fanny off chasing kids all day at home mom. You are successful. You are doing the best that you can with these tiny humans that God has trusted you with.
Don’t let anyone’s version of success taint your vision of success. Not your neighbor, not your coworker, not even your spouse. That’s the glorious thing about your success – you define it – you get to decide.
Love, Crystal
