Just Because You Can Doesn’t Mean You Should

Updated: Sep 28, 2022

As a working mom, you do a lot, and both you and others have expectations that you will maintain the level of doing what you’re doing. When is it time to ask for help with your to-do list?

Do you do things because you’ve always done them instead of asking for help?


Or do you do them because you can do them in such an effective way that it would take more time and energy to explain them and train someone else to do them?


We can all relate to that.


But just because we can do something doesn’t mean we should. That’s this week’s mantra!
