Every day is your moment to OWN IT!

Either you run the day, or the day runs you. - Jim Rohn

On occasion our upcoming daily activities can be rather daunting or overwhelming and often leaving us inclined to almost turn a blind eye to everything that is waiting to be accomplished or completed, but the reality of the matter is that doing this does not benefit us in any way, shape or form - it really only makes matters worse, because the mountain that we originally had to climb is only compounding whilst we are stuck in our little moment of denial or procrastination.

Pretending things don't exist, or that they will just go away... really doesn't work! Truthfully, the best defense and course of action is to just get stuck in to what awaits you. Once you break the surface, that overwhelming sense of panic will disappear and you will take ownership of the situation - once you have reached that point, you own it! And it is simply a matter of ticking the list!

There is a GREAT sense of achievement when you manage to "get through" everything that hours before seemed almost impossible! 21 days! It takes 21 days to make or break a habit and "owning your day" rather than let it overwhelm you... is most definitely a habit that you want to cultivate! Anything in life worth having requires hard work - we know this! So... go and OWN it!

Until next time...

Absolutely true.

I have a #dailythoughtfulpost/Zeke Thoughts to write about how to attack a day effectively as a lazy procrastinator.

I
One thing that helps when I start feeling overwhelmed is to know it is just my brain emergencying me into action, and a list of prioritized checkboxes gets me through.

Attack that day!

Love that idea! I suppose I have had years of conditioning in that respect so I don't struggle at all with self-motivation whilst working from home... but I DO find that having a clear schedule and knowing what you want to get out of the day produces much better results than just doing it "willy nilly" lol

Yep "own that shit" as we say in the industry. Things are what they are and they will stay that way until you make a start and do the thing. Most of the mountains are in your head anyway

Aint that the truth!

Good advice. I find that putting off things I don't want to do (mostly administrivia stuff that is managed through massive email chains) is often the worst part. One advice I read some time ago for getting started, was to just set a timer for 10 minutes and tell yourself that if you spend 10 minutes on something and want to stop, its ok. Usually you will go longer than 10 minutes if you do this, but the point of making the 10 minute limit in the first place is to just get you to start.

That is also a fantastic tip! It just pushes you over that starting point!
