OVERWHELMED? FOUR STEPS TO TAKE ACTION.

Posted on October 21, 2015 by Nancy Solomon Gross, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.

As a Transformational Coach, I have often witnessed my clients feeling overwhelmed by decisions. For many, the plethera of information that determines our decisions can be a deterrent rather than helpful. How can we possibly sort through all the information we have in a timely fashion, in order to KNOW which decision feels right? At this point, we just have content. Given that many people do not know where to start when they are overwhelmed by information around a decision, they lean towards not making one.

Here are 4 steps that can move you forward toward your decison:

KNOW your intention: Why is it important to know the answer now?
Create a short list of content that relate to your intention. How can you relate why it is important to the amount of information available and create priorities around what information is meaningful and relevant to your goals?
Create short list of content into choices: What is a short list of meaningful choices based on the answer to number two?
CHOOSE! Now that you have the short list of what you need to know in order to make a decision, which one honors your goal in the most impactful way?
Transforming awareness about why the decision is important can narrow your focus on relevant information. This information is then developed into creating a short list of choices that honor your values can move you from feeling overwhelmed to empowered action.
