There's one thing that all Moms have in common, lack of time. Whether you're a stay at home, work at home, or work away from home Mom you likely find yourself running around taking care of others but just never seem to have the time to take care of yourself. Indeed, many of us even believe that to take time for ourselves would be selfish and take precious time away from those we love.

Mom Management: Managing Mom Before Everybody Else reminds us that when we are strong, healthy, and positive we can actually take better care of those around us. This book also shows that taking care of ourselves can be achieved in small ways that manifest into huge rewards. For instance, taking time to be alone might be achieved by taking a bath or spending time reading but the resulting positive frame of mind and the energy will allow us to take care of our responsibilities with renewed vigour. Likewise, by allowing ourselves to be something other than Mommy sometimes we show our children the importance of being all that we are.

This was a quick read (in part because I didn't do the activities in the book as I was reading it). It's an ok book with fairly decent tips on how to take care of yourself in addition to being a mom, working, etc. Maybe it's just not my style but I didn't find any life-changing advice or have any lightening bold moments from reading it. I guess for someone who really goes through and does the activities it might be different, but it wasn't really anything I hadn't read/heard before.
