You know what? Two things that really worked for me were to stop multitasking. I pick one hard thing, finish it, then move on. It’s helped my work get sharper and cut down on errors. Second, I also started writing down what I don’t want to do each day, which helps me delegate or deprioritize faster. I can't do it all, even at home, so planning what others can do for me helped me A LOT.

I’ve heard this advice before, but I am so scared to take it. I have so much to do, it feels counterproductive cutting out multitasking
I'm embarrassed to admit how excited I am about this, but purchasing a robo vacuum a couple weeks ago has been a huge win for me. I have two longhaired dogs and their shedding is RIDICULOUS - I was vacuuming daily and it still felt like the house was perpetually covered in hair. Finally ordered a knockoff Roomba from Amazon a couple weeks ago and it's helped so much. I still have to use my regular vacuum here and there to get areas it can't reach, but that's only like once or twice a week. Feels great having one chore (mostly) taken off of my daily to-do list.

Okay but wait that is so valid. I wish we had more affordable robo cleaning options out there! Definitely a big help
My job has been unusually stressful lately for whatever reason and I usually am in a huge rush to clock out and get home, but lately I've been stopping at the park first, going for a 5 minute walk, then heading home. It's been a good buffer for me not to bring the stress home and a little me-time. The fam thinks I'm just headed home from work since it's a short walk, so I don't feel the need to explain to anyone that I just need a quick "regroup."

I like this approach. Making sure you’re taking care of yourself, but in a way that easily fits into your life.
Sounds silly but take each day as it comes. It’s totally okay to have a bit of an off day for no reason. It doesn’t need to mean anything deeper, sometimes it’s good to have a step back and give yourself time to have a break / rest from life!
