Hey, @chiefhotmomma! Simply said… do what makes you happy yet why is it so difficult to do? One of the exercises I learned from @DivinePurposeMV was to reflect on all the things I loved to do as a kid.

It made me think… do we spend our growing up years FORGETTING? Or, being convinced that what makes us happy isn’t worth pursuing.

P.s. I totally agree with Tara (above) – it is all about happiness. That is actually my big goal for 2009. I just want to be happy, and want my family to be happy.

Thanks so much for mentioning our project. The success thing is tough – right? We created a capitalist animal, and, now that’s how we measure ourselves. As Ted Leonsis says, “People have two wallets: Money and time.” I think someone’s TIME should be viewed as a legitimate currency. We found in a survey of working women, that those who were balanced believed they were the most successful. Said another way, balanced women feel more successful. I think – very slowly – the definition of success is changing. Sometimes is comes in little spurts, like when you are involved enough with your kids school to make good decisions that matter. Sometimes it comes in a huge tidal wave, like the economic downturn that has folks focused on what really matters. Starting this conversation here on your blog is a great step. You’re the new generation of book club / support group / and classroom.

Sincerely,

Kathy and The Hot Mommas Project Team
