We get caught in chaos the moment we turn off our alarms. For some of us, it means a full calendar, deadlines, and backlogs. So many presentations and meetings, that we barely get through the day unscathed. For many, it is simply not keeping up with even the basic needs. And as we lay our back in the evening, our minds won't stop. We can't even find enough sleep. Yet we need to get enough sleep and rest to reboot our minds and be efficient with our duties and functions, whether personal or professional.
Being anxious, overthinking, worrying, fear - these things won't make anything better. They won't help us perform better on stuff we need to get done. What we are trying to do is challenging enough and it is not worth adding more to our troubles.
Where can we find the peace to restore our peace and find balance? Vacation? Netflix? Running?
Among the noise and chaos in the world around us, we must find STILLNESS- and we can find it WITHIN.
It is best to breathe and calm down. Remain focused on things that are immediate, those that we can control. Recognize but do not entertain extreme emotions. Be present.
That is all there is. That is what we can do.
