Are You Overcommitted?

The problem for overachievers is not capacity. It’s an inability to allot enough mental energy to focus on what’s most important.

Are you overcommitted?

I’ve asked my clients this question hundreds of times over the last 23 years.

Before adding more to our plates, it’s critical that we understand our capacity.

I’m not referring to the amount of free time you might have in your schedule. 

When asking about your capacity, I’m curious if you’ve allotted enough mental energy to focus on what’s most important.

Before you fill your calendar with endless activity, get crystal clear about the few accomplishments that move the needle.
