[quote=Anonymous]Don't compare yourself with people (especially imaginary people) who you think are doing everything better. They're not. And even if they are, so what? They're not you. If you have kids, don't worry about the clutter, the grime, the many ways you have to lower your standards to get through the day. You can always raise your standards when things get easier (they do get easier, I promise!). This isn't to say that yo have to Cherish! Every! Moment! But cut yourself some slack. Cut your kids some slack. You're in this together. Don't worry about getting fat or frumpy. Do the best you can with as much attention as you muster on any given day. That's good enough. Save as much as you can for retirement. If you have kids, have term life insurance and a will. Spend money on experiences and ease (trips! handymen! housekeepers), not stuff. [/quote]
