Quien mucho abarca poco aprieta

Translation: Whoever takes a lot of space, the less he/she tightens up

Aaannd we're back, again. Took some time away because sometimes not doing big projects is ok.  Have you ever felt that dread and weight of taking on so much and then realizing that you might not be able to complete or accomplish it all? That's usually from over extending our abilities and accepting that if we don't stay productive, we are a failure.

Being active, productive, and busy is good until you feel a burn out and can't process much after that. Acknowledging time to rest and relax is important. Contrary to what our abuelitas and mamas told us!

In this episode, Belen talks about why she took a break, again, and why she doesn't feel the need to give explanations. Short and simple. However, no lesson is complete without some tips and suggestions on how to keep you on track if you feel that you need some organization. Three tips on how to keep a task list and how to accomplish those items on the task list.

So, if you're feeling the burnout of the pandemic and the pressure of the "post-pandemic world" (whatever that means), take some time to write down what you need to accomplish so you feel good. Hey, making a list is productive too!
