Introduction – Feeling Overwhelmed
As many of you know, I have been on the road a lot recently. When you are gone from your home and family, things start to pile up. Sure, you might be meeting excellent people and doing great things on the road, but life feels out of control. Things break, the lawn grows, and business needs attention.
These things start to weigh on your mind and bog you down. Returning home, you suddenly have a lot to do before you reload and head out again. As that to do list grows and the tasks get more complex, so does that feeling of panic and dread.
You can easily feel overwhelmed by the demands of family, work and life. That feeling can wash over you, and if you are not careful, you will get nothing done because you feel paralyzed by the amount of work on your plate.
That is how I am feeling as we roll into this weekend. How are you doing?
