1. First, take a deep breath. When we're overwhelmed, pausing briefly helps us think more clearly. 2. List all your projects and deadlines. Write down everything - getting it out of your head and onto paper makes it more manageable. 3. Prioritize using urgency and importance 4. Break each project into smaller, actionable tasks. A large project becomes less daunting when divided into bite-sized pieces. 5. Schedule specific time blocks for each task. Be realistic about how long things will take. 6. Focus on one task at a time rather than trying to multitask.

Some of the ideas ??that I recommend in these escenarios are: 1. Prioritize ?? but more important align that priority with relevant stakeholders. Otherwise you’ll be running hard but in the wrong direction. 2. Evaluate resources ??? and deliverables in case you need reprioritize or escalate accordingly. This ensure that you have everything you need to ensure effectiveness. 3 Keep focus ????♂?on the energy level of you and your team and adjust breaks, work balance between the team, remember you need to keep enough energy to complete the project. 4. Celebrate ?? the achievement of milestones to keep the spirit of the team. 5. Ensure simplicity ? is ?in the process checking in with the team and remove roadblocks to maintain the peace.

"Deadline"-Dead..Line- after that line you'll be charged/penalized/lost/missed the bus.. These all are things Human mind Tries to Avoid in life. So, when there is deadline It's Normal that Mind feels Pressure, Stress, Load, overwhelmed in this situation for Limited time till deadline. What if we close eyes, Think Consequences of Not meeting deadline, if we genuinely cares about matter, it can trigger human in the present to be Proactive rather Procrastinative. "ACCEPT" that I need to pass this phase & "I'm ready to handle it wisely with my intellegence & strategic way" rather than emotional & reactive way. Be Sthitpragya in every situation of life & everything will be Right in time undoubtedly. Wishing all of you Sthitpragyata????

I think each and everyone is an expert in his or her field and work environment. Adjustments should be made out of own expertise not suggestions and pressure from others. Failing should supported, as well as honest and non-judgmental conversations. From my own perspective - I am still learning. Time boxing is key. When I start jumping tasks I get less efficient and easier overwhelmed. Also trying to get 15min full focus time slots was a game changer. Cheers and look after yourself :)

Mindfulness is an essential practice for maintaining focus and meeting deadlines effectively. It encourages individuals to stay present, prioritize tasks efficiently, and minimize distractions. Techniques like time-blocking, deep breathing, and self-reflection can enhance productivity and decision-making under pressure. A mindful approach fosters a balanced work mindset, preventing stress and burnout. Integrating mindfulness into daily routines can lead to more organized, efficient, and thoughtful work execution.
