Iโve learned the hard wayโthrough too many endless lists that quickly become side quests and distractions!
So, I work differently.๐

๐ฆ๐๐ฒ๐ฝ 3: ๐๐บ๐ฎ๐ถ๐น ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ธ.
Once those are done, I grab the next three, grouping things based on urgency, energy, or ease.
Itโs less overwhelming ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐บ๐ฒ, more fluid, and lets me focus without the weight of an unfinished list haunting me.
Oh, and I work from ๐5 ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ต ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐โfar more creative and freeing than stuffy, structured lists.
โ We all work differently.
Whatโs your approach to managing the mental load? Drop your thoughts below ๐
