Life with little kids needs to be triaged—If you want to 'have it all,' pick a few of your most important things, focus on those and let the rest go.
. But whatever the reason, right now I seem to be drawn in by every click-bait headline that reads, “How to Get Balance Back in Your Life” and “Yes, You Can Have It All” in my newsfeed.
Two weeks ago, I came across an article on an old tweet by Randi Zuckerberg, sister of Mark, former director of marketing at Facebook and mother of two. As the founder and CEO of Zuckerberg Media and editor-in-chief of lifestyle website, Randi’s a busy lady. The spirit of her tweet: entrepreneurs have to choose three of the following priorities: work, sleep, family, fitness or friends.
I’ve been flipping that list over and over in my head ever since, because the more I think about it, the more I believe that parents of small children have to make that decision, too. It’s not that you can only have three forevermore, but, yeah, for days or weeks at a time, until your kids are a little more independent. There is no way I can address work, sleep, family, fitness and friends every day, regardless of how well I manage my hours .
The tricky part for me will always be allowing fitness to be a priority. Friends and family are a natural part of my rhythm, while fitness has to be shoehorned in. But give me a few weeks and I’ll make it happen—at least for a few days. I can’t wait for the week when it’s fitness, food and friends. Maybe I can even combine food and friends and have a grown-up dinner party .
