I know what it’s like to get lost in the everyday rush of life, never slowing down for a moment to take a step back and see things for what they are.
When we slow down, the blurry edges become apparent, and we can see the power of small actions.
Here are 5 little things I apply to my life that make everything easier:
1. Write down the next three steps.
We get overwhelmed by thinking about the three hundred things we feel we need to do, which creates a lot of pressure.
The minute we decide on what’s most essential and get those things out of our heads and on paper, the easier things suddenly become.
It’s like acknowledging that all we can ever do is one thing at a time.
So do this:
Write down all the things you could do today, and whittle it down to three super easy, do-able steps.
I promise you, there’s always a do-able part of every challenge. Find what it is and make it real; nothing ever needs to be complicated.
2. Get present.
I know, you’ve heard this one a lot. And yet we rarely go there because we over-estimate the value of grabbing on to thoughts.
