“Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it’s to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential — as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth. You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them. To invent your own life’s meaning is not easy, but it’s still allowed, and I think you’ll be happier for the trouble.” WorkCareerStay At Home Moms Author:Bill Watterson
“So many people think that they are not gifted because they don’t have an obvious talent that people can recognize because it doesn’t fall under the creative arts category—writing, dancing, music, acting, art or singing. Sadly, they let their real talents go undeveloped, while they chase after fame. I am grateful for the people with obscure unremarked talents because they make our lives easier---inventors, organizers, planners, peacemakers, communicators, activists, scientists, and so forth. However, there is one gift that trumps all other talents—being an excellent parent. If you can successfully raise a child in this day in age to have integrity then you have left a legacy that future generations will benefit from.” ChildrenKidsHappinessTimeLeadershipCareersCreativeFocusTeachingAcceptanceHumilityBabyConfidenceFameParentingGoalsPrioritiesPlanningLegacyServicePregnancyMothersWhat MattersGiftedBlessingsLife PurposeGiftsTalentsBabiesFathersPlannersStayingpositiveu ComMomsStaying PositiveDadsParenting 101InventorsOrganizersLife Purpose 101Stay At Home MomsFamily ForeverRearingStay At Home Mothers Author:Shannon L.

“About a month before I gave birth, Colin moved to LA full-time. Once Rudy arrived, Colin settled happily into his new role, returning to architecture when an interesting project cropped up. Pretty amazing, right? Unless you reverse the gender, and then it's what women who have the choice to stay home do 95 percent of the time.” HumorFamilyHollywoodWorking MothersStay At Home MomsStay At Home Dads Book:Just the Funny Parts: ...
