Prioritising


Hi Brooke,

I have an issue with overwhelm and prioritisation. I have many ‘to do’ lists and really find it difficult to work out which is most important to do. They all feel like they need to be done with the same importance. I try to do as much as I can but, as there are so many things to do, it is impossible to finish them. I never feel good about doing anything as i haven’t completed it all ( which is impossible). I know this and understand it’s my thoughts. I constantly feel like I have a weight on my shoulders carrying around all these things I should be doing. I find it really hard to switch off, especially when I am tired, which is a lot of the time. I know it’s changing my thoughts about it, but I am finding it hard to do. I often tell myself ‘ none of this needs to be done today’ and ask myself ‘what is your reward?’ to try and encourage me to feel some pleasure from completing tasks. How do you switch off from it all?
