A Simple Technique to Overcome Overwhelm

A simple technique for overwhelm

A simple technique to overcome overwhelm.

Have you noticed how quickly you can get stuck in indecision or become completely overwhelmed when your to-do list is too long, a project seems too big, or you’ve just lost touch with how to prioritize your day?

All the various distractions, literally at our fingertips (hello, mobile device!), make these moments of indecision evermore frequent.

There is a way to overcome these times of:

  • Overwhelm
  • Lack of clarity 
  • Lack of motivation
  • Boredom
  • Grief-induced paralysis
  • General decision fatigue

And it is more simple than you’d think.  Find out how in today’s video.

Well, what do you think? Will this simple technique get you moving and put your mind at ease today?

Thank you for spending time with me here today.

You may also enjoy this post I wrote with 5 steps to overcoming obstacles.  (This was my first video post from back in 2015! I had to film instead of write that week because of a neck injury, and I filmed from a hotel room while traveling for work.  Good times!)

4 Steps To Creating Your Life Motto

Life Motto

Do you have a Life Motto?

A friend told me last week that her life motto was, “Leave places or situations better because you were there.”  This got me thinking about the importance of all of us claiming a life motto, an overarching principle or rule to live by.  As you probably noticed, my friend not only said to leave places better, like we’re told when we venture out in the woods, but “situations” better.  This covers everything, doesn’t it?  Conversations, conflict resolution, campsite etiquette, the work you do, the words you choose to use verbally and in writing.   

Today, I’m sharing four easy steps to create your life motto.  Let me know in the comments below what yours is.   

Click here to take the fun “What’s Your Life Motto” quiz I mentioned.  While the quiz is fun and may come up with something fitting, I think it’s important to put a little more thought into creating your motto.

Thank you for hanging out with me today!

Don’t you think your friends, family and co-workers should create a life motto, too?   Share this blog with them and ask them to share theirs with you.

What the Dying and Death Can Teach Us About Living

Lessons from death

Unexpected death, those we are faced with individually and collectively, are devastating, but there are life-giving lessons to be learned from death.

None of us knows the exact moment we, or our loved ones, are going to die, but we do have a choice in how we live out our days.  Hospice nurse Bronnie Ware learned quite a bit from her dying patients and the regrets they shared with her before their death.  In today’s video, I share the top 5 regrets of the dying and how we can learn from them, whether you take your last breath today or years down the road.

Here’s to living without regrets!
