Hey DJs, if you struggle with competing priorities or feeling overwhelmed with too much crap to do... start with completing one task. Then continue to complete task 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.
I know this concept sounds oversimplified, yet the other day I had one of those awesome days when I accomplished one task, I was able to go about accomplishing more tasks.
That first task creates catalyst for further progression. You just have to let it, and allow that fuel or energy burst to generate more tasks completion or goal accomplishing.
I knew I had to get that task done that was occupying space in my mind, I just didn't feel motivated to do it. Once I accomplished that task, I went about doing another backlog task.
The day created a snowball effect for me where I as I able to accomplish one task after another, I felt motivated to do more and enjoyed the confidence that came with going through the backlog of tasks.
It's interesting too, yet I felt my mood change and improve significantly. People noticed I was happier and easier going. I was less stressed and enjoyed social interactions because I didn't have all those tasks occupying space in my mind. I felt free to enjoy others company.
I would imagine this modus operandi could apply to various goals in your life. For example, in the gym, you've got energy leftover after killing it in the gym. Get in ONE more rep, ONE more set. Keep progressing forward.
