I wanted to share this exercise I created that helped me remove overwhelm, inspired by a group coaching session with the Dopamine Queen. It's simple but effective. First, list out all the things you are "pushing on", or have expectations of yourself to do. Basically - list out everything on your plate. Just go into full stream-of-consciousness mode. Now ask yourself: 1. What will I push on today? 2. Tomorrow? 3. When I can? 4. Not at all? (ie. what will I let go of?) Then, color code each one (in Notion: click the handle at the left and choose "Color" submenu): 1. green for today 2. purple for tomorrow 3. blue for when I can 4. red for not at all You will now have a hierarchical ranking you can use to sort -- and remove -- priorities. Finally, rearrange your list by color to have an authoritative list, at a glance, of: - "what I'll be caring about today" - "what I will be caring about another day, soon" - and "what I won't be caring about for now... or maybe ever." See my list below (blurred client names) for inspiration.

Do you second-guess yourself a lot? Think through client convos while chewing on tacos? There's a funny reason for that. Your brain doesn't know the difference between good and bad stimulation. It just craves dopamine. And stimulation boosts dopamine. So sometimes when your dopamine is low... The brain will use your work situation... To stimulate itself into getting extra dopamine. How do you fix that? Easy enough. You need to detox from that extra dopamine floating around. And when you do... The dopamine baseline will return to normal. And your overthinking will be over. . . .
