I would like to ask you, and please do not be offended, as that is not my intention. How many times do you need to engage in doing something, before you automatically mentally and emotionally remember what it is you need to do?
Now I ask that question, as this is what can get you in a state where managing your matters needs to be put into the priority box, so that eventually you can learn from your experiences to build on what you have learned, so that you can lean on that knowing and ability to feel less overwhelmed and more overcome.
What may happen for you, is, you made a plan, you executed that plan, for want of a better word than execute. I am not much of a fan of that word. But let us go with that. So you executed a plan, and you got on a path. But, here is the thing. It is not until you remember the entire parts of that plan, that you will progress to know and be able to move on to a new lot of learning.
It is here at this point, that you are learning to link from your experience and not feel so overwhelmed, simply because you have learned from the experience you engaged in, to know and be able the next time, you go down any path. And you do not need a plan. Education – helps you to link and learn.
What are you waiting for?
