KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • When you’re already drowning with too many commitments, your brain also undergoes a lot of work. It’s now on duty 24/7. So, for you to have excellent mental health, you’ve got two choices, either learn how to manage things better or remove other commitments.
  • Ask yourself, “Why am I suffering now?” Go back, evaluate, and make sure that the things you’re doing right now are for your goals. If you’ve lost interest, then change the narrative or change how you do things. And if it won’t bring you any happiness, then why do it in the first place?
  • There’s a limitation for what an individual can only handle. The stress can damage your mental health and your body. So, if this is happening inside your work, tell your boss about your struggles. What they want is that you perform well and have outstanding results, so anything that isn’t helpful in their cause should be fixed.

  • “Being overwhelmed is horrible. It can utterly destroy you.”
  • “Take action, take control of your life before stress becomes the killer.”
