Feeling overwhelmed it a when it's time to stop and take inventory. What's necessary and what isn't? Start with the small jobs and go from there, until you're on a roll. If your list is still too big, ask for helpb but before doing so, be realistic about what isn't necessary.

 

We all have those feelings, even OCDers, like myself, who in so many ways are perfectionists and many times, have difficulty asking for help. The above is what I do about it.

Startingover07 that cracked me up, because, well, it's sums me up really well... .

Now I have a new mantra to deal with my wandering attention: finish what you're doing, first.

 

It's sometimes really hard for me. It goes against all my time-saving instincts. I think we start multitasking to save time, but then when we overdo it it becomes counter-productive.

It seems to be working for me.

 

Anyways, my days go something more like

 

 

I decide to water my garden.

But first I check if anything happened on LS overnight

 

As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.

 

As I start toward the garage, I notice mail on the porch table that I brought up from the mail box earlier.

 

I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.

Which reminds me that i should go check my emails and see what's going on on LS
