I woke up and planned my day in my head, I had high hopes of accomplishing what I wanted to accomplish.

As I sat at my desk and started to write down the 5 things I wanted to complete that day, I received a text. I looked up at my phone and it was from the dog groomer confirming Chloe's 10am appointment. Even though I had the appointment on my calendar, I had forgotten that it was today. I figured I'd check my email since my phone was next to my computer. Before I knew it, 9:45 hit and I dropped my dog at the groomer.

I got back to my home office and sat at my desk and glanced at a blank piece of paper. What was I working on? Oh yes, my list of things to get done today. A reminder popped up on my laptop. and so on... Fast forward to 5pm. Still a blank piece of paper. I got zero of the 5 things done I had wanted to. Does my day sound familiar? Do you feel like you’re racing around every day and not accomplishing what you want? I take full responsibility for what happened to me this day. I am not a victim of my circumstances. I chose to get in my own way. I call this self-sabotage and it is an addiction I've been slowly breaking in recent years.

Feeling overwhelmed and unaccomplished is a common struggle many people face.
