You may already realize that while men have a 24-hour cycle, women’s energy isn’t linear in the same way, moving on an (approximate) 28-day cycle.

For moms, and single moms in particular, working from home versus commuting makes a huge difference in how we’re able to show up both as a parent and an employee.

Author Dan Millman explains why we need to loosen our grip, especially when our situation is not what we expected.

Most people give up on new year’s resolutions within the first month because they lack motivation, get busy, or shift their priorities. Change is hard—but when you know what you want and have a vision in mind of how you want to feel, it’s easier to get back up and try again. 

Today Steve Harvey reminds us why it matters that we keep picturing our goals and truly asking for them. By taking action on his one simple idea, we gain five tools that help us step into the reality of our desires and goals, instead of just another failed resolution.
