Day 61 / 108 Challenge

#61

"I bow to keep my original pure mind, even when time passes."

Today went almost exactly how I planned it to go, except that I under-estimated the amount of work I planned on doing.

A pro tip: if you are ever overwhelmed with the amount of tasks in front of you (or that you wish to complete), it is VERY helpful to take few minutes to lay out the outstanding tasks and get it done one-by-one. You may not get to complete everything, but I guarantee that you will complete more than if you were to be overwhelmed and spent time on worrying about the magnitude of the to-do lists.

This is exactly what happened to me. Due to unexpected corporate outings yesterday, I was behind on my chores and tasks. This morning, I began to stress out and get overwhelmed. However, I have managed this level of stress and anxiety before (actually, significantly more) and I knew the best way out of it is to simply make a to-do list and focus on getting each items done. I blocked out my evenings to tackle this, and allocated "meeting slots" to complete each tasks.

Obviously, things do not go as exactly planned. Few tasks required more time, and resources. But overall, I managed to finish most of the stuff I wanted to get done today, and I am so proud of the way I handled today.
