Overwhelm getting in your way?

"Overwhelm" is typically used to describe a feeling of being very stressed or overloaded, often due to having too many things to do or too much information to process.

Breaking down tasks into smaller, more manageable steps can help prevent feelings of overwhelm and increase productivity. Consider dividing larger tasks into smaller, actionable steps and prioritizing them based on importance and urgency. Don't be afraid to take breaks or ask for help if needed.

Tasks should be able to be completed within an hour, not be dependent on tasks from others (ie waiting on another person to do something before you can begin), and can be performed in one step.

An overwhelming task would be: write an ebook. A less overwhelming task would be: google how to make an ebook, brain dump ebook ideas, practice writing 15 min weekly, or email colleague to find out how they did their ebook.

Don't let overwhelm prevent you from taking action or seeking help. Break tasks into smaller steps, prioritize what's important, and reach out for support when needed. Remember that it's okay to ask for help and take breaks to recharge.
