We all know that everyone gets overwhelmed. When this happens, what do you do? Some people know while others don’t. In this episode, Rob shares his secret about how to beat the feeling of overwhelm. If you feel like you are going to mentally explode, Rob’s 4 simple steps will keep you sane. Tune in today to master the art of managing overwhelm. KEY TAKEAWAYS 4 quick and simple things to follow to drown out feeling overwhelmed: Brain dump everything out when you feel like your head is going to explode. Write out the 48 or so things that are in your head or you can empty it out in an audio file. Just empty your mind. Now that you have a list. Look at it and see what you can leverage, outsource or pay someone to do it or just get some help. Never be afraid to ask for help, your list should be a list that needs to be done, not a what-you-have-got-to-do list. By doing this there is a good chance that your list will go down by a third or even half. We are the bottleneck of everything when there is so much to do so ask yourself, what can we leverage, what can we outsource and what can we get help on? Learn to say no. In your list, there will be things that you can simply say no to or that you can delay, by a week, month or year. Just be honest with people and say,  “Sorry, I can’t do that right now.” or "I am interested but I need 3 months to just get things cleared up." You must take responsibility of the things that come your way. If you want less to do and less overwhelm in the future, you have to start saying no. After 1, 2 and 3, you will have a third left on your list. Take time to prioritize everything on left. Yes, your brain automatically does it. But you have to remember to not have any distractions. Let nothing interrupt your priority. Number 1 is number 1. Finish it. Then proceed to Number 2, then Number 3. When you are overwhelmed, these will happen: You can lose your shit. You react to people badly. Clients, customers, family, friends, the people close to you. You push people away. You miss opportunities. You feel so full, so you push opportunities away consciously and unconsciously and unfortunatley the good opportunities, you won’t be aware of them. The things that you are doing, because there are too many things that you do, you end up doing them badly. You just have to do them too quickly so you rush them.   BEST MOMENTS‘But just writing everything I had to do down was the good step 1. It’s therapeutic. It’s cathartic. It gets out of your head. And then it just releases that feeling some more because we all get overwhelmed.” “Do not be afraid to ask for help. It is not a weakness. It is a strength.” “I like to say, ‘I’m interested but not maybe until 3 months time or 6 months time. I’ve got other things that are important and more priority...” “Here’s the irony of overwhelm when we haven’t got enough to do, enough business to generate, enough leads, enough clients, we want more more and more. Then when we open the floodgates and start bringing in opportunities, we have too many. But we created it. Everything that you’ve got on your list, everything that’s happening, you created it through what you said yes to.” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
