You’re not overwhelmed. You’re just overcomplicating it.
Simplifying your approach will be the most productive thing you do today.

Let’s be honest for a second:
You’re not overwhelmed because you’re doing too much.
You’re overwhelmed because you’re making things way more complicated than they need to be.
If you look at your to-do list right now, I guarantee most of those tasks are bloated, vague, and confusing. And that’s why you keep putting them off.
The more complicated something feels, the easier it is to avoid.
Here’s the truth:
You don’t need a bigger plan. You need a smaller, clearer one.
The Curse of Overcomplication
Everyone loves the idea of a grand plan.
We love vision boards, 90-day strategies, and step-by-step guides that promise we’ll achieve everything we want, just as soon as we follow the "perfect" blueprint.
But here's the kicker: most of those plans are just distractions. They make us feel like we’re doing something important while actually taking us farther from action.
The secret? Simplify.
It’s like looking at a huge messy room and deciding to clean the whole thing in one go. It feels impossible, so you end up doing nothing.
But if you focus on just one corner, just one task, you’ll make progress.
