Overwhelming!!

So I am sitting at a Starbucks.. Oh my god , so many thing to do before the Sunday ends. Actually before 5PM. Its already 3 PM. I am yet to finalize the art work for our product , that new project that's coming in needs to be completed in time- some serious planning required there , Library books need to be returned, What happened about that amazon order , Yes the spa appointment tomorrow , ohh planning for the thanksgiving shopping (I take it very seriously!) , India trip and tickets , oh that last week.... The US elections and the results , Indian Prime Minister shocked everyone by a bold step of 500-1000 notes.. Commendable strategy , moreover the secrecy maintained during the execution is unmatched.. How about  the 2017 strategy for that market ,  Remember the router needs to be changed , Shall I move to a new place? , Birthday gifts for my November , ohhh didn't post the card!

 , working on the market... The step count for the last week was very low. Need to run more this week to maintain the average..

Wait Wait Wait

How about this delicious caramel Latte that you are just sipping without even noticing the aroma or the taste.. Isn't this sugar too much for a person like me , who would prefer coffee with no sugar..

Its so easy to get lost in the chores and be overwhelmed and still not being productive. At some point everyone goes to that stage. No matter how well organized you are, no matter how proactive you are..there will be some point where you will be simply simply overwhelmed..Most of the times because of the ever-wandering mind! It just wont stop... 

I am just reminded of my mother's favorite phrase.. "एकेक विचार व्यवस्थित घडी करून कपाटात ठेव !" 

(Fold every thought carefully and put it in the cupboard , this is the analogy we have heard since childhood when the room would get messy.. The same applied to the mind)

How true is that , 

The analogy of a messy room fits perfectly to the overwhelmed mind! Too many thoughts and no productivity.. Busy being overwhelmingly busy! 

For now , I will close everything and enjoy this cup of coffee.
