Welcome to my life! Now, I may be speaking for a lot of us here because I understand that everyone probably takes on way more than they can handle sometimes. I know I take on wayyyyyy to many tasks, but I\u2019m young and I can! I\u2019m a full time student taking 18 credits with a major and a minor, I work part time, and volunteer a couple nights a week. By the time I get home from work, after I\u2019ve done a 6-hour school day, it\u2019s around 9:00 and I need to <i>start<\/i> doing my homework.<\/p>\n<p>Now this is not at all scientifically proven, but this is Autumn proven. This is why listing makes <i>me<\/i> feel accomplished.<\/p>\n<p>Start listing out what you need to do, one at a time. Even if it\u2019s small things like washing dishes or doing small homework assignments. On the side, you can see one of my To Do pages in my planner that I use quite often to list things out. I find it very helpful. As I\u2019m done, I check or cross it off and the list is shorter. There\u2019s nothing better than seeing a huge list get smaller. It makes it look like you\u2019re getting something done, as little as it may be.<\/p>\n<p>I always start with my smaller tasks. I like checking thing off and seeing the list get shorter, so the smaller things get done quicker\u2026making the list smaller faster.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve accomplished a few small tasks, you feel accomplished. To me, this gives me motivation to get more things done. I want to keep making that list shorter, so I go through most of my To Do\u2019s quite quickly.<\/p>\n<p>Make some lists, cross things out, and Happy Planning!<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 109px\" width=\"592\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/planwithautumnbreezy\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-195 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/blankenbush\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Hover-Facebook-icon.png\" alt=\"Hover-Facebook-icon\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Hover-Facebook-icon.png 256w, http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Hover-Facebook-icon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ablankenbush\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-199 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/blankenbush\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-Twitter-icon.png\" alt=\"Active-Twitter-icon\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-Twitter-icon.png 256w, http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-Twitter-icon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/autumn.breezy\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-197\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/blankenbush\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Unknown.jpeg\" alt=\"Unknown\" width=\"226\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Unknown.jpeg 204w, http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Unknown-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 226px) 100vw, 226px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-200\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/blankenbush\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-YouTube-icon.png\" alt=\"Active-YouTube-icon\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-YouTube-icon.png 256w, http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-YouTube-icon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-196\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/blankenbush\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-Pinterest-icon.png\" alt=\"Active-Pinterest-icon\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-Pinterest-icon.png 256w, http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-Pinterest-icon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-198\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/blankenbush\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-LinkedIn-icon.png\" alt=\"Active-LinkedIn-icon\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-LinkedIn-icon.png 256w, http:\/\/courses.dc.edu\/sample2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2016\/03\/Active-LinkedIn-icon-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever had so much to do that it\u2019s so beyond overwhelming you just shut down?
