You will never use your kids as an excuse again after you read this!

When you have been in management and an entrepreneur for over 11 years, you will have heard every excuse in the book. Everything from time, money, energy, kids, fur babies, traffic, and even Ambien (more on this crazy story later).

Making excuses is a way of saying, \u201cit\u2019s just not that important to me.\u201d or \u201c I really don\u2019t want ___________ badly enough.\u201d People create these false stories to make themselves feel better about not showing up for them, their employers, their clients, or loved ones.

Then you add kids into the picture and everyone can give exhausted moms a pass, after all you are taking care of tiny humans 24/7. Even though this sounds like a more reasonable and socially acceptable excuse versus, \u201cthe traffic was bad,\u201d or \u201c I don\u2019t have money to start a business, it is still BULLSH*T.

An excuse has truth in it, that\u2019s why it\u2019s an excuse. This is why when you use an excuse enough; you can believe your own story. Mine used to be, \u201cI\u2019m too exhausted,\u201d and I could justify the shit out of it to my self and others, UNTIL someone cared about me enough to call BULLSH*T on me.

Love yourself enough to call BULLSH*T on your excuses. Be honest with yourself, if something truly isn\u2019t that important to you, that\u2019s okay, if it is and you are covered in a layer of excuses, as yourself, \u201cWhat discomfort am I avoiding?\u201d

Today I brought on a guest to prove this point on excuses, Lauren Jumrukovski has a three of them, ages 1, 4, and 6, but she didn\u2019t let that stop her from going all-in. Lauren is a popular mommy blogger of TheySayParenting.com, and now a published Author of \u201cThey Say, Not Your Average Parenting Book,\u201d available at bookstores nationwide.
