Overcoming Overwhelm
As you lead your business or organization, it can get noisy and overwhelm can start to creep in.
Lots of information come in from different sources, and you must decipher which ones require your attention to move your vision forward.
Sometimes it can feel like there’s so much happening.
So much information you’re receiving that it’s hard to hear that still small voice inside that’s ultimately guiding you.
Sometimes the information is more noise and not helpful or necessary.
Other times, it’s needed for your business to succeed, but even in those cases, too much data can cause overwhelm.
This doesn’t mean you have to do everything yourself or at that very moment, but it does mean that you must decide if it’s important to do or not do and take action accordingly.
So how do you ignore the noise and focus on what matters?
Simply stop, get quiet and get back to basics.
By stopping and taking a moment to calm your mind and block out all the information coming in, you can refocus on your vision and assess where you are.
Even when it seems like if you stop, you’ll get further behind, that’s when it’s EXACTLY the right time to step back, refocus and assess.
By giving yourself permission to stop and clear your mind, you’ll be better able to determine what steps you DO need to take and feel more confident taking them.
