Anyone feel overwhelmed trying to fix things in your life?

There's really no area of my life that doesn't need healing or improving. It can feel overwhelming. Anyone else feel that, or find any way to minimize that anxiety of never feeling enough ?

Mmhmm. Really feeling it this year, even though we’re only one day in. I know the deadlines ahead though and the rerouting that’ll be required of me. It’s the unknown results that bring on the anxiety and even urgency to get it all over with. But I can’t move up those deadlines. And truth be told, I’m not ready to take them on so it’s good I have time to gain some insight and the mental tools I’ll need to move forward.

So, what I tell myself to keep the anxiety and urgency at bay is “I’ve done everything I can do right now. I deserve to acknowledge that, be okay with that, and momentarily let go so I can harness the immediate redirection needed to put my time and energy into something I can fulfill beautifully right now. Everything else will get its moment.”
