How to stop doing too much and still move toward your goals

On today’s episode, I’m exploring how to stop overfunctioning while still taking action toward your goals. I talk about how planning, taking on too much, and trying to get everything right can leave you exhausted without moving forward. Using research on psychological flexibility and mentally disconnecting from work, I discuss choosing the tasks that matter, moving through the discomfort of doing them, and practicing letting yourself be done, even when you feel like you should do more. I end with an exercise to help you decide what’s enough for today so you can work toward the life you want while still enjoying the life you have.
