Anyone else feeling overwhelmed lately and out of control? How about so far behind your plan for the quarter is basically all messed up? That’s been me, too! Today, I am sharing a process I recently used after we moved into our new house to regain control so that I could still get some things done and eliminate some anxiety.

MENTAL HEALTH NOTE: I do also want to say that you don’t ALWAYS have to be productive. You are good and worthy even when you’re resting! It’s okay to fully take a break and not worry about being productive at all if you’re feeling the need to rest. Burnout is real and it’s serious. Please take care of yourself!
Here are my steps:
STEP 1: Braindump.
Write down everything that has a specific deadline coming up and ask yourself if you HAVE to do this or if you can delegate, push it back, or skip it. If it has to get done, put it on a page flag (or on your list.)
Ask yourself, “What easy things can I do that will help me get a quick win and help ease some pressure or anxiety?” Write these down! Seriously, even if it’s as simple as “take a shower’ or ‘wash the dishes’. Ideally this will be something that can be done relatively quickly.
Now that you have those out of the way, write down every single thing that’s been on your mind as needing to get done. This is everything that’s making you feel anxiety. This might not be an easy win or something with a deadline, but it’s something that’s been nagging at you or causing you to feel overwhelmed.
Questions I ask myself:
“What’s currently causing me anxiety that I can take action on?”
“What’s currently feeling out of control?”
“What other steps can I take to alleviate this feeling of being overwhelmed?”
“Can any of this stuff be delegated, outsourced, or pushed back to another time?”
“What can I reliably handle right now?”
Once your list is made, take away anything that was delegated, deleted, or outsourced. Now you have a list of what’s truly on your plate right now.
STEP 2: Prioritize
Arrange your list or page flags in order according to what’s the most important or urgent item that needs to get done. This will give you a very clear list of what needs to be done and in what order.
STEP 3: Get into action
Choose the first item to work on and just jump in and get it done! One tiny step at a time. As you start to clear the list, you’ll start to feel more in control and relieved.
