Productivity

Overwhelm Triage

When everything feels urgent: dump it all out, sort by real deadlines and consequences, and get a do-today list of three.

I'm overwhelmed. Everything on my plate: {{braindump}} (just dump it — tasks, worries, commitments, half-promises).

Triage it: real deadlines vs anxiety deadlines (what actually happens if each slips a week — mostly nothing; show me), the consequence sort (the 2-3 items with genuine teeth), what can be shed (the quick declines and the 'I need more time' messages — draft them), what a competent person would delegate or do to 80%, and the DO-TODAY list of three, in order, first one small enough to start in 5 minutes. End with: the recurring source of this overload, if the dump reveals one.

Fields like {{ this }} are placeholders — replace them with your own details, or let Aria ask you for them.
