Overwhelmed? No Worries - You Got This!

Jan 23rd Overwhelmed? No Worries – You Got This!

For something different today. You’ve survived the holidays but now deadlines are stalking you and you feel overwhelmed once more. Last week I read a statement that really stuck with me and decided to share it and my thoughts with you on this reflective Wednesday morning.

“The wonderful thing about writing is that there is always a blank page waiting. The terrifying thing about writing is that there is always a blank page waiting.” J.K. Rowling (One smart and creative lady) I admit it, I’m a huge fan!

Not a writer? It’s okay, you can apply this to life in general. Consider every day is a bright, shiny, new blank page. What fantastic endeavor will you take on to fill it?

Some days that statement is truly wonderful and other days it’s truly terrifying. It is the root of all that makes me exhilarated and overwhelmed— sometimes at the same time. LOL

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Do you have a work or school project deadline approaching at light speed? Even mocking your ability to get it done? Is the stress and anxiety building to the point you may explode?

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. Before you blow up and make a god awful mess, take a deep breath. You got this. Don’t look at the project as a whole, break it down in palatable pieces. Each completed piece or chapter brings you closer to your goal or deadline. Take a moment for a quick well done to you and move on. Before you know it the project is done and the deadline met. Confidence returned and you’re ready to tackle the next exciting chapter on your road to success.
