Why even bother thinking through and writing down a normal day routine?!  The short answer --- because it saves you time! When you know where you are spending your time and what tasks during the day you really want to accomplish, then you know what you can handle and how fast you can handle it.  With 5 kids, my evening routine takes me about 4 hours to do. I know when I push everything back --- things will get really crazy and I will be staying up late putting kids to bed.  Creating a normal day routine is not something to use to mark yourself as a success or a failure but it's like a guidepost. Like going on a healthy diet where you know what food you can eat and when.  It cuts down on decision fatigue, time managing in the moment, and helps you say "No." to daily tasks that pop up because like an emergency.  Let's walk through ... step-by-step how to set up a normal day routine in today's episode.  ELITE MOM PLANNING PODCAST FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/elitemomplanningpodcast/ ELITE MOM PLANNING PODCAST SHOWNOTES: https://www.elitemomplanning.com/5/ FREE MINI WORKBOOK CALLED 'FINDING YOUR LEFTOVER TIME, SELF CARE FOR THE BUSY MOM': https://www.elitemomplanning.com/time/
