This week has been one of the best in my life. I've just moved to a new part of town, so I'm working with different people, living with different wives and certainly gaining experience. I am very happy and thank God for such opportunity.
I've also been paying closer attention to the influences women have in the world. How we can influence those around us for good or evil. Based on this thought, I would like to share with you a tip I've learned that will influence those around you positively and also be a blessing in your own life.
Tip of the week: starting at home, create a schedule for yourself involving those you live with. Perhaps you could arrange to sit down with them all and work out a schedule that will work for everyone. Make sure you include the following duties:
1. Cooking
2. Cleaning
3. Grocery shopping
4. Laundry (washing and ironing)
Agree to a menu for the week that everyone will enjoy. Create your shopping list according to your menu. Change menu's every week so you don't get tired of eating the same food. Be creative with this. Google has thousands of new recipes and dishes you can try. I have been doing this and my family really appreciates it.
You don't need to be a pro to do this well. All you need is the will to make it work and give it your best. I learned this when I started doing it everyday. Today, it's second nature to me, but in the beginning I found it hard to be creative at home and especially in the kitchen.
Soon I'll post some things I've tried that have helped me so you can try them too.
If you live alone follow this tip all the same, so when you become a wife you will have mastered this part and will only need to adapt to the rest. It really helps!
My mother was and is a great wife and I admire her to this day. I believe many of the things I practice today I learned from her, but a lot of things also came with time by learning from others who are good examples around me. I believe the secret to being a good wife in this modern world we live in, is to have a purpose, remain focused on achieving it and most importantly have a solid relationship with the One who created us in the first place. He is the One who will give you all the dos and don'ts from day to day to getting where you want to be.
I have decided to start this blog to help women of all ages who want to be better than what they have been at home. You don't need to be married to benefit from it. As a matter of fact, the sooner you begin practicing some of the tips I will share, the better it will be for you. I want to share with you through this blog a few things I practice which I have learned and they really help me, but at the same time I also want to learn new things from you, that I can then share with everyone else. Sometimes all we need is just a little advice, an idea or simply a bit of support, so that's what we'll do.
Feel free to leave comments with suggestions, or just to say what mostly helped you so I can keep improving. I am new at this so your comments will definitely be greatly appreciated. I plan to leave a message here once a week from now on. Perhaps in the future I'll leave one more often.
