Monday Mindset - Confidence
|
Hi Reader! As many of us begin a new homeschool year this month, I'd like to try something new with my emails to you. I know some of you homeschool year old and some don't start until September. That's okay. This will still align with your rhythm. We are growing at Homeschool Essentials and we have more ways to encourage you and support you. My hope and goal is that I do not add to the noise of your inbox, but that I bring you a fresh word of encouragement or an idea on how to build a skill just when you need it. I also want to let you know about products we are creating, amazing offers we have and resources that we recommend and have loved and used over the years or about events happening online. To help keep the emails short and easy to read, here's what I'd like to try this season. I'd like to send out 3 short emails a week:
With that said - here's our Monday Mindset! (next Monday's email will be much shorter, I promise!) Monday Mindset: ConfidenceA new school year doesn't ask you to have it all figured out.

Who had questioned themselves, learned from mistakes, and discovered along the way what really mattered. Their words carried me through some of my hardest...
Hi Reader! There’s something about the beginning of a new homeschool year that always makes me reflective. When I first started homeschooling, I wanted to have the whole year figured out before we even began. And when I say figured out, I mean figured out. I had color-coded folders for every week of the school year, with worksheets already torn out and carefully organized. I had a plan. Then I met actual homeschool life. Some lessons took longer than I expected. Others we flew through. An...
Hi Reader! When I first started homeschooling, I was determined to be organized. I'm talking color-coded file folders for every single week of the school year. Every worksheet had been torn out of the workbooks, sorted, and filed into its assigned week. I had the entire year planned before we even began. It looked beautiful. It lasted... not very long. Some lessons took twice as long as I expected. Others my kids flew through. Then there were the rabbit trails. The books we discovered, the...
