Feeling a bit Overwhelmed Today
I had lots of little things to do today, and the number of variety of these things had me feeling a bit overwhelmed. I know that I have a tendency toward all or nothing thinking, and the thoughts driving this feeling had to do with completing everything on my plate today. If I can't complete it all, then somehow I'm a failure. There's a label for you. What I ended up doing was focusing on the most important items and try to get those done. It's funny in a way, but those items really didn't take long to address. I had those done by lunch. So I then attacked a couple of other items that I've put off but felt I needed to address. I completed both of those too. Finally, I realized I needed to get something done before tomorrow, and guess what? I completed that too. Today will be a good day to reflect back on in the future. This is typical for me. I fret about having lots of things to do on a given day, but usually end up completing them or at least the important ones. So why worry?
