from my dear friend Raychel Deppe
“stress sucks. a little advice. something i rediscovered recently. no need to be stressed. just take ONE step at a time. dont think about EVERYTHING that needs to be done all at once. just focus on the job you are doing presently….it will put everything into perspective and make things not seem so BIG, because really they aren’t….they just seem that way because your mind is not able to grasp everything at the same time so it is feeling overloaded. if you have to, write everything down that you need to do today…and then forget about it! when you finish a task, refer back to your list, and cross off the one you just completed (creates a positive sense of accomplishment). then move on to the next thing on your list…and focus ONLY on the next task…no more. “
