OVERCOME OVERWHELM:
10 Ways to Slow Down and Win
Laurie Weiss, Ph.D.

Especially when you are your own boss.

It's easy to break agreements. It is especially easy to blow off agreements when you feel overwhelmed and overworked.

After all:

You have way more work to do than time to do it in.

You keep putting off important tasks in order to put out fires.

You don't have the information you need to complete the task at hand.

You have a large stack of business cards you collected while networking.

You have no idea how to prioritize the multiple tasks you face every day.

One form of self-discipline to solve this common dilemma is to commit to ONLY MAKE AGREEMENTS THAT YOU ARE WILLING AND INTEND TO KEEP!

Just doing this can keep you out of lots of trouble.

When you think through your agreements BEFORE you make them, it becomes much easier to stay on target, follow through and achieve success.

I am responsible. Although I may not be able to prevent the worst from happening, I am responsible for my attitude toward the inevitable misfortunes that darken life. Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life.

I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have - life itself. Walter Anderson
