'We [as a family] made an intentional decision this fall to scale back and say no to more. I hope some of the insights we use to find sanity in the fall help you to enjoy yours.' - Christi Straub Enjoy this helpful article from our archives!
The truth is, there are a lot of things that throw our family “off balance.” Yet, isn’t it ironic that the busiest time of year also happens to be our favorite? The kids are back in school, which means school functions and extracurricular activities get added to the schedule, along with church activities. It’s also conference season, which means travel and speaking pick up.
But I realized I haven’t been voicing my “no,” even to Josh. I question myself too much. “Maybe I’m being too protective?” “Maybe this is important?” “Maybe I should take on more?” So I give in and say yes, never voicing the apprehension lingering in the back of my mind. So, we made an intentional decision this fall to scale back and say no to more. I hope some of the insights we use to find sanity in the fall help you to enjoy yours.. Going behind the scenes of their home, this was an insight that helps drive the Chandler family. We have since embraced it in our home.
But pay attention to when you feel disconnected with those you love the most. If you feel disconnected and your schedule is not letting up, confidently say no to a few things to say yes to your family.Turn off push notifications on your phone. They don’t care about our relationships with our kids or our husbands. They just care that we tend to them right now. And when we say yes to one thing, we say no to something else.
