If you’re a small business owner, chances are that a sense of overwhelm is something you deal with from time to time. I know I do.

In this episode, we discuss my process for dealing with overwhelm:

1. Acknowledge that you’re overwhelmed. 
2. Take a break. 
3. Do a 10-minute brain dump. 
4. Organize your list into the Eisenhower Matrix. 
5. Take action. 
6. Allow yourself to rest. 

Links and resources mentioned: 

• Here’s more information on the Eisenhower Matrix, made popular in Stephen Covey’s The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. 
• More information on the Pomodoro Method 
• Focus@Will (my favorite tool for getting productive) 

ACTION STEP: Download the Eisenhower Matrix template and get your thoughts organized.
