The CEO Mum

Hi my name is Melissa!  

I am currently studying Bachelor of Property externally part time as I am also working  with five kids in tow (one is a baby which is a bit of a juggle).  Feeling a little overwhelmed but I'm sure it will be an incredible experience and I firmly believe that we can all achieve what it is we want in life if we put our minds to it.  So I'm going to have a crack at putting that theory into practice!

I am a fully licensed real estate agent but would like to specialise in one area being valuation, hence the nature of what I am studying.  I was a little apprehensive about enrolling as a "mature aged student", however the young course consultant at CQU Bundaberg soon put my mind at rest & actually made me laugh. When I voiced my concerns, she turned to me with a big smile on her face and said, we have many mature aged students, so actually you're not that special! I had my 16 year old daughter with me at the time who also thought it quite funny.  She said Mum you'll still be studying when I start.- Good I'll have someone to whinge to who can't  escape I told her.

Take Care & best of luck on your journey!

CEO Mum is a blog for Mum's on the go!

A place to connect, a place to whinge when no one else will listen about why you still didn't get your phone fixed that you left on top of your car while you backed out the driveway & then later ran over up the road when you hit the brakes because the baby learnt this morning of all mornings how to open the car door while driving....AAAHHH

The Oxford Dictionary Defines a CEO as..

A chief executive officer, the highest-ranking person in a company or other institution, ultimately responsible for taking managerial decisions.

Notice the highlighted words - executive officer, higheset-ranking,ultimately,managerial

THIS could define every Mother on the planet!!!

If raising children is not enough for you & you've just added - working, studying, becoming the president of the local P & C or just decided that you can add another 1hr in your day as a stay at home Mum to get fit (with a kid hanging off your ankles while you're trying to do sit ups)- then you know exactly what I mean...Whats sleep anyway - completely overrated.  Everyone expects we can do an endless amount of things in one day, all at one time, so why can't we claim the title of CEO Mum?

Because WE do not ALLOW ourselves!  That's one of our qualities...HUMILITY (also known by us all as stupidity)

Well out with the old in with the new.. time to get -

• educated
• employable (if that's a goal)
• fit
• looking HOT
• & still have that 1950's 'picture perfect' tidy & clean house - I'm not bringing my husband his slippers though, that's where I draw the line!!!

We CAN have our  

 and EAT IT!!!

I am so why can't you, in fact I'm intending to eat the whole damn cake & still fit into those skinny jeans...
