Ever felt like for each task you accomplish, another 2 tasks come your way? It's like you're drowning with no lifeline. ๐คฌ
That was me, 2 years ago. No matter what I did, I just kept getting more and more overwhelmed. I knew more and yet, I felt frozen. ๐ฅถ I didnโt know where to start the change, or whether I had the time.
Thatโs when I decided I would move even if it was a mistake down the road, or there was no gain. ๐ถโโ๏ธ It was better than staying still. ๐ถโโ๏ธ
With my goal in mind, I took these steps:
Did a brain dump! ๐ง To save my brain from remembering everything โ I made a list of all the things I wanted to do and jot them down. โ
I looked at what my non-negotiables were (i.e. your big rocks)๐ฅ I looked at what parts of my life did I have to have? ๐ฅ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ๐ซ I slotted those into my schedule first. This ensured I had the necessary things in my day to unwind.
Put in deadlines for workโฑ Hereโs the kicker. Set deadlines for when I wanted to start and end work each day. One of the reasons we donโt feel like we have enough time we procrastinate thinking โI can do it laterโ. ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ Then before you know it, itโs bed time. โณ
The rest is up for debate ๐ Here is where I could be spontaneous if I wanted. Either I add in the lower priority tasks to the rest of my schedule or I could just breeze through them in whatever order throughout the week.
These things can be tricky, but they are not impossible.
