“Different Decisions Different Outcomes”

There are moments when we look at the day ahead of us, we think we have enough time. However time can be seen in different ways. It could be seen as the passing of time in seconds, minutes or hours. It could be told in the 12 hour or in the 24 hour mode. It could be told in a manner expressed through the phases of the day, such as the morning, afternoon, or night.

After taking on the role of motherhood, time has changed some how, and I now see it in phases in the day or night. There are times when I feel there isn't enough of it to get the things done. It's not because of procrastination but priorities have changed and the level of spontenety has increased. I don't regret the time I spend with my little one or as a family. As Kathrzyn Schulz puts it, you make different decisions which result in different outcomes. So it's not so much about having regrets but a different perspective. How I use my time is based on the choices I make in the day the question is am I prioritizing as I should be?

With this in mind I will try to investigate 6 apps for mindfulness and time management. With these apps I will see how effective they are and if at all they are helpful over the course of two weeks. The bigger question is:

With the aid of these selected apps, can I maintain a healthy work and life balance?

I hear so much about the use of apps to get organized, however I don’t know if this will work for me. I’ve always been the low tech kind when it comes to getting myself sorted. The thought has come across...what if it works for me? In search of a better understanding of having a balance with my work as a mom and life. I will reward myself in the evenings with a simple moment of silence and a warm cup of tea, which all seems like a luxury and a concept from another life time. Now onto trying some apps and see how I fair with them.
