Being a mom and dealing with everyday life can be hectic. I have four kids, all different ages and I go to the gym everyday from 6-8am. Also run a full time business and the best is I work with my husband. We are going through some tough times, finanacial and sometimes I just feel like quiting. Ladies I just need some encouraging words to keep my spirits up?

I'm no lady but I own a business and I feel your pain. Feeling like quiting and actually quiting are two different things. I know you'll do the right one. The tough times are temporary...you know that. It'll pass. Hang in there kiddo. NOW DROP AND GIVE ME 20!!!!!!!!!

Life is always full of ups and downs. It's what keeps it interesting...I think...I always find this time of year tough, not sure if it is the weather, shorter days, or just the fact that we're approaching year end. Finances and relationships always seem more challenging this time of year. You just have to plow thru it and keep your head above water. I find working out helps alot!! So hang in there Dendys, thing's will get better.

Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.

Thanks alot. I know that 100 years none of this is gonna matter, but this owning a business stuff is putting me the test. I can only do each one hour at a time right now. So, Charlie do guys just handle money stress better then us chicks?

Nope, not at all. My wife is better at it than I am. I'm just such a geezer I've seen it all come and go many times. Wait till you have to do a commercial renovation and deal with the rogues from the city. My wife and I have had cross words about 10 times in 25 years. It was ALWAYS about money. It's much more fun when you have plenty.:big_smile:

I guess I'm just scared of losing everything we have worked for in the past 13 years. I have gotten us great credit scores and know we are taking a gamble. Never have I felt this way.

Yeah, we did one of those "go for broke" things recently...jury's still out. What's the business? Lift heavy and angry, it has always helped me. Most folks don't realize that business owners are way out there on their own. Usually we're just the scumbag boss.

Tell me about it:angry:I am a mom of a 17 month old and a 11 week old, both boys. Sometimes I dont have the energy to train or anything after a long day, But I know deep down its my only outlet and keeps me focused even on very tough days.

Thanks everyone. Today seems to be looking a little brighter. I have been so busy praying I'm sorry if G-d has'nt answered anyone else.LOL.
Training is such a great way to find relief.
Thanks again,

Thank-you. Today the sun is out and my kids are all healthy.
I started my power lifting cycle this week for my show in May, which keeps me in the now. God knows how Dendys will end up, but for today the doors are still open. Please visit me on line at www.dendys.com.
Thanks again,
Dendy
