'Where do I start?' You may ask yourself!

Are you constantly replaying reasons not to do something inside your head? This is the first sign that you are beginning to feel overwhelmed and fogged with your workload. You might be suffering self-doubts. 'What if it's not good enough?' This sort of feeling can render us powerless to take action. You end up doing that ostrich thing by burying your head in the sand and hope it goes away. Some people spend this period of time 'planning' to do those tasks, making schedules when they have no intention of getting done a task at hand. We may be undermining our own confidence and self-belief. If you constantly and repeatedly play down your strengths and replay areas that we perhaps didn't perceive ourselves to be successful we are reinforcing the negatives. The trick is to become aware that you are doing it. Acknowledge the feeling and listen to the inner you that bigs you up. The hero inside yourself (a bit cliche I know!), the adult figure in your life that always believed in you when you were just a kid.
Your inner critic sometimes just needs to be silenced. Give yourself permission to do that. Don't overplay your weaknesses.

There is no good in me telling you to make a list and stick to it, because this feeling is 'just a feeling' and not necessarily that which holds substance or intuition. In fact, it wants to you power it and give it worth. Perhaps you absorbed negative energy from elsewhere or you are just tired, hungry or bored with your current situation.This means that another part of you needs a rest and is manifesting itself with the need to self-affirm that you do not or can not handle a particular situation.
Sometimes when faced with a challenge and changes we have to make a decision to leave our feelings of familiarity. This feeling makes us want to just go back to how we were before.

Remember that life's opportunities often lie outside our comfort zone. Your feelings may not be aligned with your true intentions. Conversely, if our feelings come from a positive place you may actually find that they are revealing the truth to you. You just need to validate your own self-worth. If we are waiting for inspiration or a crazy epiphany this may just be another form of procrastination. Occasionally we may make ourselves busy with other things on purpose. These could be more enjoyable on the surface but less important for your own actions.( For example, I could make myself busy sorting out wall displays in my classroom when in actual fact I have 12 sets of 30 exam papers to mark and the marks should have been done yesterday! I know that in reality this is an extreme example and I know I would not have let it built it to that level!)
Try to find enjoyment in what you do and remember to keep things in perspective. You do need sleep, you do deserve five minutes peace in the day and you do deserve to have a passion for your job. If you don't then its time for a change.

TAKE THE LEAP OF FAITH!
What is the real issue?
Whatever your problem- be it workload, lack of time to get things done, or lack of personal confidence or energy there is always a solution.

a) SELF TALK- it is so important to give yourself reasons to get the task that is hanging over your head just done. Without engaging in worry which is just going to drag you done, stay calm, take a few deep breaths and go for it.

b) TACKLE THE HARDEST FIRST- the hardest tasks are the ones that allow your stress levels to rocket on a subconscious level. Once you've got rid of them the rest will begin to seem like a piece of cake. Reward yourself and give yourself a pat on the back.

c) PROMPT ACTION>Instead of spending any unnecessary time in worry-just start the task at hand asap.
d) BUILD FUTURE EFFECTIVENESS>
Based on your experience of the present feeling of excessive workload, try being more proactive in future.
Foreseeing future occurrence of similar tasks means that you are mentally prepared for them. You can then pace yourself and take on board most things that are thrown at you.
Remember you will only think you are sinking if you can't control and manage your workload. Good management of your time and effort will leave you more resilient and buoyant.
I found that practicing gratitude, saying thank you for all of my experiences and challenges with a meditation on helping others, made me generally more positive and a happier employee.
Perhaps this will help you too.
Wishing you a positive day!
