Kristi Clover: 我在书中提出了‘收集和调整’的技巧,主张根据每个家庭的独特情况调整家庭整理方法。试图遵循所有规则和效仿他人整理家庭的方式是令人疲惫的,而且往往不会成功。上帝创造的每个人和家庭都是独特的,所以要调整技巧以适应家庭的动态变化。一旦生活步入正轨,新的变化(如新生儿或孩子进入不同阶段)就会出现,需要重新调整。重要的是找到适合自己的方法,而不是盲目模仿他人。要尝试不同的方法,如果不起作用,不要感到失败,这是关键。如果感到失败和不知所措,就很难开始行动。我们应该调整和借鉴他人的经验,使其为我们所用。我曾经在怀孕期间答应朋友在我们家举办婚礼,认为自己可以应付,结果在婚礼前六天生下了孩子,这完全不在计划之内。这次经历让我意识到过度计划和过度承诺是真实存在的,我需要记住我的优先事项,家庭和健康应该优先考虑,压力可能是导致早产的原因之一。虽然朋友们尽力帮忙,但最终很多事情还是落在了我和我丈夫的肩上。 Danny Huerta: 如果你热爱你的工作,你自然会被它吸引,但要注意健康的说是和健康的说是。要区分紧急的事情和重要的事情,并思考为什么某件事是紧急的。要反思自己是否因为害怕让别人失望而承担了不必要的责任,而忽略了家庭等重要的事情。学会说不,即使别人失望也没关系,因为有些事情不是你必须做的,而有些重要的事情需要你去做。我拒绝了一个很棒的演讲机会,因为我需要参加我侄女的毕业典礼和女儿的亲子活动。与家人、朋友和亲人的投资是非常值得的。时间是有限的,我们应该珍惜与所爱之人相处的时光。不要为了让每个人都高兴而做出错误的决定。优先考虑人而不是项目,家庭第一。有时候,因为把时间花在家人身上,家里可能会比较乱,但我宁愿花时间陪伴家人,也不愿让房子井井有条。
