Instagram LogoWhat do you believe about being a #singleparent? A couple months ago, I wrote a set of “I believe” statements to declare some of my thoughts about being a single parent. Yes, they are all positive. And yes, I believe them wholeheartedly. Making declarations like these are important because what we believe about ourselves, our situation and the people we surround ourselves with matters a lot! It dictates how successful we can be, how vulnerable we can be, how wealthy we can be, how confident we can be, how loving we will be, and more. In short, what we believe dictates how high we can fly in our lives. Here are some of my beliefs. What would you add to this list? • I believe single parents deserve to feel successful, fulfilled, calm and confident. • I believe single parent families are resourceful, creative, resilient and capable of thriving. • I believe the world needs single parents to thrive. • I believe single parents are an inspiration to their children. • I believe being a happy single parent is better than being a miserable partnered parent. • I believe single parents deserve a life full of love, ease, abundance, joy, inspiration and optimism for their future. • I believe single parents are a powerful force for change in the world, breaking cycles of abuse, smashing stereotypes and redefining what a healthy family looks like. And my favourite: • I believe becoming a single parent can be the best thing that ever happened to you. #singlemom #singledad #resilience #powerful #believe
