Do you ever feel like you’re not doing enough?
We’ve all felt like we’re not “doing enough” at one point or another. That mindset block can really cause a lot of issues in your life! In this post, I’m giving you a few simple tools to help shift your mindset so you can let go of the guilt of not “doing enough.”
A few weeks ago, I spent the weekend getting a TON of work done, and it felt great! 🥳 But when Sunday rolled around, it was REALLY HARD to get my brain out of “work mode.” I kept itching to pick up my phone, write content, and look at/work in my planner.
I was frustrated with myself… I just wanted to relax and enjoy the day! But… I also wanted to work while my energy was high. I found myself thinking “I didn’t do ENOUGH.”
I know I’m not the only one who’s been there.
Maybe you’ve sat on the couch after a long day, exhausted, but you’re still overwhelmed by the mess of life, and you think “It wasn’t enough.”
Or, maybe you leave work 2 hours late, forget to eat dinner, only to answer emails until you need toothpicks for your eyes… but there’s still more work to do. “Ugh. I just can’t seem to do ENOUGH!”
So here’s how to decide what “enough” is:
Define what “ENOUGH” is.
What is enough? You get to decide! Because the list will keep growing, and the laundry will never end. The way you define ENOUGH can massively affect the way you live your life.
When I thought about what “enough” felt like, I realized I was actually pleased with my efforts. It wasn’t perfect, for sure, but I wasn’t upset with the way I used my time.
You can also ask WHY you feel like you’re not doing enough.
When I sat down with that question, I realized… the earlier part of my week didn’t go as planned, so everything got pushed towards the weekend. The other part of the equation for me was just that I was just in a good flow, and it can be really hard to turn that off! (And that’s okay!)
The truth is: You get to decide how much is enough.
Even if your day doesn’t go according to plan, you get to CHOOSE to give yourself grace. You get to decide that you’ve checked enough things off your to-do list. You get to decide.
