Dealing with Overwhelm
I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed right now! You know the feeling?
I just got back from 10 days of traveling, and while I don’t regret the decision to hang with my wife in Amsterdam and Paris sipping wine and eating baguettes, I’m feeling the effects of being away BIG TIME!
The moment I touch down, I ran back-to-back Leadership events and when I got home, I slept for 13 straight hours straight.
This week…. I’ve got a 53-mile ultramarathon on Friday, 100+ emails waiting in the inbox, soccer games with Tiger, BestYearEverLive.com in 3 weeks, Thanksgiving plans to make, etc, etc.
I’m not complaining, as I feel grateful for my situation, however I do feel overwhelmed with challenges, options AND opportunity.
Perhaps that’s my new response to “How are you doing?”….. I’m overwhelmed with opportunity 🙂
For years, I’ve worked to figure out a system to dig myself out when I feel buried, in challenging moments of life.
In the video below, I share a few ideas which have brought clarity, peace and progress.
Cheers,
