It takes a lot to keep a household running smoothly, especially when you live and school in your home! These four principles help me stay on top of my household responsibilities.

What we talked about

• The myths of multi-tasking. Did you know you lose 20-40% of your productivity when you switch tasks? Here’s how we can avoid this pitfall as homeschool moms with many demands on our attention.
• How evaluating your tasks in light of your priorities will help you eliminate some of your responsibilities. And why I cannot tell you exactly what to eliminate.
• Routines you can put in place to automate your day. And how this can help eliminate some of your overwhelming feelings.
• How to outsource or delegate tasks without spending a ton of money.
