(1)No time, and no money.

If you are an employee, chances are this describes the way you feel. You can't go shopping on a Tuesday afternoon or tell your boss to take a hike. How will you even be able to afford to send your kids to college, save for retirement or even think of having a life today with no time and no money?

(2)No time, lots of money.

Some so called successful self-employed, professionals and small business owners are in this category. They are slightly better off than the employee because they earn more, but they have to work even harder than employees to keep up with the diminishing profit margins, competition and servicing their customers. As a single mother, do you want to spend much less time with your kids?

(3)Lots of time, no money.

A lot of college dropouts, rock climbers and bums have lots of time but no money. Maybe living close to the ground is bliss, but without a stable source of income, how long can you last? If you're a single mom, you know that your kids will need food, clothes, plus medical care for that broken arm or leg. Not a great place to be in my opinion if you are a responsible single mom.

(4)Lots of time, and lots of money.

It is the category that big business owners, landlords, investors are in. Imagine, not having to work for money, but having money to work for you by investing them and earning profits by using your money to make money. Also, you're smart enough to hire the best people so you don't even have to work. Just think about how many people you could help out in the no time, no money category. A lot of people are comfortable there.

Here are Two Questions for You

1.Which one of the four categories best describes your current situation?

2.Which one category would give you the most opportunity to be a great single mother?

If you answered with time and money you're the kind of person that stands a chance of getting there. Because as Henry Ford put it "If you think you can or you think you can't, you're right."

Yes you can do anything you want and with the internet and all the information and services readily available there is every reason a determined single mom could be in the time and money category rather quickly.

Single Moms And Dating

There is a very demanding daily cycle in the life of the single mom that starts with getting the kids ready for school, getting herself ready for work, working all day long, kids' homework, their aches and pains, their needs, cleaning the house, groceries, fixing things around the house, the list just goes on and on.

Fitting all these things into twelve to sixteen hours every day causes a lot of immediate and short term stress.

There is probably not a single day without stress for the single mom.

In addition to all this, there is also the longer term stress for the single mom that comes from dealing with the emotional aftermath of a divorce or break-up.

What are the effects of this stress on the single mom?

Emotionally the single mom usually suffers because it is very tough maintaining a bright and positive attitude with all these pressure bearing down on you.

There are also the physical effects of stress. These typically include a change in the single mom's weight by either gaining weight or losing weight. Most women tend to experience the effects on the weight gain side.

Unchecked stress levels increase one's appetite that results in either a gain in weight or a real difficulty losing weight.

What can the single mom do to combat this stress?

The most important thing to do is to recognize that you have high stress levels and to take care of yourself with that in mind.

You need to make time for yourself where you can break out of the routine and just simply relax.

This can include something as elaborate as taking a vacation without the children, to something as small as spending an hour at a salon or at the gym.

Stress levels in women are also reduced by getting support from friends and family. Just talking to people and having a good laugh goes a long way towards breaking the constant cycle of stress piling on top of more stress.

Stress in single moms is a very real threat to the health and wellbeing of the single mom and it must be recognized and dealt with stress reducing and relaxation activities on a daily basis.
