Breaking tasks down into smaller, manageable steps can be a game-changer for those with larger tasks. It helps maintain focus, reduces overwhelm, and increases productivity. By taking one step at a time, you can tackle challenges effectively and celebrate small victories along the way.

Is loading the dishwasher overwhelming each night?

If you don’t open it today, you will have more to pen the next day, which will take longer.

The bigger the pile, the greater the problems it creates and more significant issues like late payments for bills.

Open as soon as it comes.

Don’t put it down to tomorrow, as tomorrow never comes.

It is easy to lose track of the subscriptions we pay.

There are so many, and tracking them can be overwhelming.

Start today by

Making a simple six-column list with the following headings

1: Subscription name

2: Cost

3: Date due

4: Frequency

5: Back account or card used to pay for it

6: Does it auto-renew or end example, once a month or annually

Once you have done this, start with your bank statements for the last month and write down each subscription on the bank statement using the list,

then move on to credit card statements etc. finally, look at your phone and what apps you have subscriptions for.

Finally, do you have any other subscriptions?

Write down a list of all incoming money for the month

Wages, government benefits, pension, all income you have coming in

Write down in three columns the date you receive it, the source and how much you get

Then total the amounts, and now you know how much you have each month.

Is the thought of working out who to pay and when to pay them overwhelming

A bill comes in, and you say you will pay it later

Then forget all about it till the late payment fee letter arrives

And now you have more stress added to your day

The answer is budgeting. The hard part is finding the right tools to help you budget. Not every tool will be right for you

Choose a Physical Activity You Enjoy Doing

Don't pick an exercise you will hate doing.

Everybody is different; some people like group activities and others like to be alone.

I like walking, listening to music, audiobooks or podcasts

There are lots of ways to exercise, and it does not have to cost a fortune to do exercise either

Are you just beginning your exercise program?

Start by taking baby steps first.

If you are a couch potato who has never done any walking, start with a 15-minute walk each day

Don't try and do 5 miles on day one; you can run 5 miles next week.

But seriously, for the first week, do 15 mins a day and then start building it up bit by bit.

Are you Starting an Exercise Routine for Managing Diabetes?

Getting into a regular exercise routine takes patience and determination, but don't give up.

When you start seeing the results of exercising regularly, you won't want to stop — and that's the greatest motivation ever.
