The 3 C's of Motherhood

The 3 C’s of Motherhood

I was recently listening to Dan Sullivan’s 10X is better than 2 X, and I started to think how all that he was teaching us about uplevelling our business lives was exactly like motherhood. As mother’s our lives are instantly 10X’d (probably more), the moment you birth your baby and hold them for the first time. You are just thrown into your role as a mother, exhausted, emotional, exposed. That doesn’t stop you from loving and caring for this new being. We have no choice but to love them hard, and leave that former version of ourselves behind, there is no time to really process. 

Here are the 3 C’s and how they relate. 

1. Courage -  Courage is that space that doesn’t feel good. It’s taking that next step even though you don’t have the proof everything is going to be ok. It's stepping into the unknown. Everything that motherhood is. You have to be courageous to show up. 
2. Confidence - Your confidence grows each and every day as a mother. Remember that first time you left the house with your baby. The anxiety, the fear, the what ifs. But it was fine. It was a success, you did it! That builds confidence, so that the next time you went out you felt a little bit more confident. You feel stronger and more confident with each and every day. 
3. Commitment - You show up everyday as a mother regardless of what else is going on. There is a commitment not only to your baby but to yourself. You continue to grow, take care of yourself, and live your authentic life, all for showing your children. There is no choice but to continue to show up, grow, and lead for your family. 

Keep learning. Keep Loving. Keep Going. 

You got this Mama.
