Before we begin, I must reiterate
that the Personal Mom Coaching service
is exclusively for moms who have purchased Taking
Care of the ‘Me’ in Mommy or received the
book as a gift. The publisher and I thought long and hard about
whether to make this section password-protected and include a
unique code within each book. Others counseled me to charge for
this service. At the end of the day, even though the majority
of the expenses related to the creation of this bonus section
came out of Steve’s
and my personal bank account, we decided to go with the honor system.
With that in mind, if you have not yet purchased the book, or you
can think of a mom who would benefit from this service, please
click here before
proceeding. Thanks for your honesty and for understanding.
Now, let’s get started. I recommend
that we start our journey of becoming better moms by strengthening
our spirits. Choose one area to focus on your spiritual walk:
Bible reading, prayer, journaling, Scripture memorization, or
praise. Studies show that it takes three weeks to establish a
habit, so for the next twenty-one days you will receive an e-mail
from me each morning. Within that e-mail will be a friendly reminder,
a word of encouragement, a practical tip, and a prayer.
We not only need support, but we also need
someone with enough tough love to hold us accountable for the
commitment we’ve
made. So I’m also going to include a special “We did
it!” link within the e-mail. I use the pronoun “we” to
remind you that you are not alone on this journey. We are in this
together, and more importantly, it is God who will supply you with
the strength you need to accomplish your goals.
Within each email I will suggest a practical
way to reinforce the habit you are putting into practice. Don’t worry if you
can’t, or choose not to, use the idea I’ve suggested
for that day. As long as you do something to further your goal
within the topic you’ve chosen, click the “We did it!” link
with confidence.
Hebrews 10:24 says, “Let us consider how to stir up one
another to love and good works.” It is not my intention to
nag you or make you feel guilty if you just aren’t able to
accomplish your goal for the day, but I do want to stir you up
a bit. By including the “We did it!” link, I’m
hoping to give you an added incentive to find time for yourself,
even if some days it is simply for the thrill of being able to
click that link and send the announcement of your “good works” so
I may rejoice with you. At the end of twenty-one days, you not
only will have established a wonderful habit, but you will also
receive a multimedia celebration “Congratulations!” card
from me. (Woo-hoo!)
