Kara Watson | Performance Coach

Ever feel like you’ve got a million things to do and no idea where to start? 🙋‍♀️

Between work, kids, appointments, running a household and trying to find time for your own goals, it’s no wonder life can feel overwhelming.

As a working mum juggling a busy corporate career, family and everything in between, I’ve learnt that the answer isn’t trying to do more.

Here’s what I actually do when everything feels like a lot:

1️⃣ Get everything out of my head.

Work deadlines, kids’ activities, appointments, things I’ve been putting off. I write it ALL down. Getting it out of my head helps me see what I’m actually dealing with.

2️⃣ Ask myself 3 questions.

✔️ What actually needs to happen this week?

✔️ What can wait?

✔️ What can I let go of?

Because not everything is urgent or equally important, even when it feels that way.

3️⃣ Choose my top 3 priorities.

Rather than trying to tackle everything, I focus on what matters most and break it into small, achievable actions. It’s about making progress, not doing everything perfectly.

4️⃣ Put myself on the list.

A 20-minute walk, a coffee with a friend or time to work towards one of my own goals. Because my needs and ambitions matter too.

💙 The biggest thing I’ve learnt? You don’t need to do everything to feel like you’re moving forward.

Sometimes you just need to clear the clutter, get clear on what matters and take one small step.

📌 Save this for the next time your to-do list feels never-ending.
