MINDSET MOM MOMENTS: "Success is Hard Work" | Keto Mom


Keto Mom here!

   "Few dreams come true by themselves. The test of a person lies in their actions. I've never heard of anyone stumbling into something big while sitting down. Even a mosquito doesn't get a slap on the back until he starts to work. A famous poem by an unknown author states 'sitting still and wishing makes no person great'. The good Lord sends the fish but you must dig the bait. The smallest deed done is better than the greatest intention"... ~Dexter Yager

One is in high school volleyball, on the 10th-grade team. Let me tell you if you have a kid in high school, and one in junior high, like me. We live in a pretty small town, and the reason I'm saying all of this is because it's almost like you're getting rolled to the sport as the parent. And it's been an incredible season, last night was our last game which was way out of town. It was over an hour away, and everybody just stayed late.

Today is Mindset Mom Moments

So anyway, we got home late and the girls didn't go to bed till around midnight or later. We all decided to sleep in, but my alarm clock went off to get up in the morning. So I woke up and I was like, "Oh,! I promised I was going to do my mindset morning at 7:30"... And my husband said, "Or you can just say you're working on your A.Q. again". So we slept in, and it actually felt great!... Anyways, as you're tuning in, where are you tuning in from? We are just getting our day started, it's great...

I don't have my book that we're going to do, but starting on Monday we're going to start that book called "Chasing Daylight" by Erwin McManus.

We're going to start the book on Monday. So I was thinking about what I can share with you today. The last couple of days we've talked about E.Q. and A.Q. There is a book that I'm going to show you, I usually say it's one of my all-time favorite books, but I have so many favorite books. This book though is hard to get, and I p
