Multi-Tasking Mompreneurs-You’re Being Watched
I read an excellent article this morning by Gina Blitzstein, a guest blogger on Work-it Mom! called “A Unique Education: Lessons Children of Mompreneurs Learn”. Next time you are tempted to feel guilty, moms, about all the time you are spending on your business, remember you are also teaching your children. You ARE being watched.
You are also teaching your children many valuable life lessons that are rarely learned anywhere else. Lessons like the value of hard work, how to work as a team, business ethics, and how to find that delicate balance between home life and work (that’s a tough one!).
You’ll need to read the article yourself to be fully inspired, but once again I want to encourage everyone to start a family business. Even if you are one of the blessed that doesn’t need extra money, start a business and donate the proceeds. The lessons learned cannot be found in any book, and the family bonds created are priceless. Don’t worry if you don’t know the first thing about business, you can learn together. You have already noticed how fast they are growing up, so seize the moment and get started today!

I agree, the Work It Mom article is definitely a plus up in my book. I’m also always looking for ways to teach my daughter real life skills and mompreneurship gives so many opportunities to do such.
