introduction
Enjoying the Ride
Encouragement for Frazzled Moms

The secret of happiness is not in doing what
one likes but in liking what one has to do.
JAMES M. BARRIE

"Would somebody please stop the merry-go-round and let me get off?"

Do you remember feeling that way at the playground as a kid? The merry-go-round was nice when it was circling slowly, but when the bigger kids came and started spinning the ride faster and faster, all we wanted to do was get off!

Now as adults we feel similarly overwhelmed, only the merrygo-round is bigger. The "working mom merry-go-round" spins at a rapid pace with many life responsibilities: kids who need our love and attention, a dwelling place that demands our care and upkeep, and a job that requires our time and energy. Our hectic pace makes us feel out of control and frazzled. The problem is, we may not be able to stop the merry-go-round and get off like we did when we were kids on the playground.

Even if we were somehow able to slow down our frantic pace, our responsibilities often do not allow us to get off the working mom merry-go-round. So we must learn to adapt to the feel of the spin and put our faces to the breeze. We must learn ways not only to cope and survive as working moms, but to delight in the place God has set us. Our goal as working moms is not to hang on for dear life; rather, it is to ride with strength, wisdom, and discernment as we honor God in our circumstances and press forward in our lives with confidence.

The Frazzled Factor is here to help you have the best ride possible. We cant take away all of your responsibilities, but we can help you find peace in the process. In the chapters that follow, we want to help ease your anxiety, calm your stress, and regain your sense of control. Most important, we want to help you enjoy with pleasure the wonderful journey of being mom.

Factoring Out the Frazzle

In this book, we have chosen to focus on seven areas that are important to working moms. We call them the top seven, because after polling numerous working moms, these were the areas they consistently mentioned. The top seven factors that tug at a working mother's heartstrings are guilt, parenting, relationships, business success, fun, personal refreshment, and spiritual growth. By factoring out the challenges in these areas, we hope to bring less frazzle and more victory to your life.

Frazzle is what happens to us when we feel as though an area of our life is out of control. It may come when we are stuck in rush-hour traffic trying to make it home before our daughter's dance recital. Frazzle may occur when a big project is due at work and you have a sick child at home. The state of being frazzled may occur every morning as you are rushing out the door with your briefcase in one hand, school lunches in the other, and shouting, "Get in the car! We're going to be late!"

Some frazzled moments just can't be avoided. But even though the situation is frazzling, you don't have to be frazzled. As Oprah Winfrey says, "If you want your life to be rewarding, you have to change the way you think." Each chapter of this book will leadyou to a new way of thinking and organizing your life, to help you achieve through God's strength a greater sense of accomplishment rather than frustration.

You and Us

Most likely you consider yourself a working mom if you picked up this book, but under the umbrella of "working mom" comes quite a variety of women and circumstances. Some mothers have stringent hours in corporate settings, while others have flexible hours at home, and still others devote hours to volunteer work. Some go to the office three times a week on a job-share program, while others clock in sporadic hours each week. Some are single, while others are married. From nurses who work night shifts, to flight attendants who travel two days a week, to jewelry reps who host parties several nights a week, we know there are endless possibilities to the types of working moms with whom we are chatting through the pages of this book.
