We all feel overwhelmed sometimes. We are responsible for many things, we have steps to take towards goals, we have homes and jobs and people we care for. When I feel stressed by my To Do list, or my mind spins into panic about what I need to do RIGHT NOW, I remember this quote by Byron Katie:
“There’s never a task too great or too small, because the only task to accomplish is the one in front of me. It might appear that there are a thousand things to do, but in fact there is never more than one.”
We can only complete one task at a time. There is never more than that one thing to do, the thing right in front of us, whether it’s to put on pajamas, proof a pitch, submit an application, or give a hug.
There’s never more than one thing to do.
