It is easy to feel overwhelmed due to stress, anxiety, fear, responsibilities and the many challenges we face every day.
And when we get overwhelmed, the natural reaction is to freeze…
We do not know how to face the situation and how to get ahead, because as I told you a few days ago, the complexity bias makes us believe that every situation or challenge we face requires a complex solution, which in most cases we have no idea what it should be.
👇 Tip of the Day 👇
- Take the first step, no matter how small.
When something overwhelms you, the easiest way to change that situation is to identify the quickest, easiest and least resistant action and start there.
One of the main causes of procrastination is not knowing how to approach the tasks or projects in front of us.
The next time you find yourself in this situation, identify what the first step is (no matter how simple or silly it may seem) and get started.
