Que faites-vous si vos idées sont dispersées et déconnectées ?

Chaos leads to clarity, if you remain calm. Thich Nhat Hanh said, "No mud no lotus." Being a crisis worker for many years, the greater chaos, the calmer I became. It sounds counterproductive, but slowing down helps us to be efficient. Understand you are the lotus. Use the mud to your advantage.

Working through my list, regularly reassessing and adjusting the priorities as needed can help me stay on track and maintain focus.

Cada una de las cosas antes mencionadas son un must cuando me siento dispersa, desconectada y sobrecargada. Al mismo tiempo, trato de prevenir llegar a este estado.

Esperar tener una desconexión requiere más tiempo y esfuerzo para volver a estar bien.
