As real estate moms, we make countless decisions everyday. What are the kids wearing, what are we eating, what day should we schedule the dr appointment, what are we giving for valentine's day gifts, and it goes on and on. I'm breaking down one of my favorite strategies today that has literally helped me remove hundreds of decisions from my plate.

This strategy helps me reduce my mental load at home and in business: Decide Once. As a mom of four and a busy real estate agent, I can attest that one reusable decision can eliminate hundreds of tiny choices that drain your energy every single day.
