Assumptions can get us as parents in trouble. Just because you think it's happening doesn't mean it is. Are you imagining things? You know what it's like lying in bed and you begin to see things in the dark. When you turn on the light, what you thought you saw was nowhere close to your reality. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT That's how it is with parenting. We can think something is happening with our child, but really nothing may be going on. Why do we assume the worst with our children? They take a ride with their friends, and the phone rings. Where does your mind go? What's happened now? Maybe your child had difficulty in school. The phone rings and it's the school. Your thoughts, "This again?" We can be so quick to "dump 'n lump" our children in whatever category they seem to frequent often. If you want to escape this trap for parents, let go of the P.A.S.T.! The K.I.S.S. ~ Let go of the P.A.S.T.! Assumptions can limit your relationship with your child and stunt their personal development and growth. Possibilities over Probabilities.  Probabilities go hand-in-hand with assumptions. Possibilities allow you to see with a different set of eyes, not expecting the same thing from the past. Acquire the facts, not the presumptions. Just because something has happened doesn't mean it will again. Now of course you want to stay on top of patterns. But don't get stuck thinking about the negative before the positive. Substitute quality over quantity. Your child needs to know that he/she matters. This is where your presence shines. Take A.I.M.! Do what you know needs to be done. Bury the assumptions and embrace the present. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"   #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.
