7 day focus: the plan

Clearly I can't change everything at once (although I have tried more than once to do it that way!)

The worst part of the overwhelm is the lack of focus.  I go to do something, get distracted, and cannot. remember. what I came to do!  This wastes time and is so frustrating.  I am trying so hard to get fifty things done at once that I end up doing zero things well. 

I have identified several areas of my life that need some real focus, and I will take them one by one and work for seven days, focusing on this particular area (while still maintaining everything else at a bare minimum).  It's hard for me to leave things undone and I use the excuse that "if I could just get x done, then I'll be ready to do y..." way too often, so I hope this will help me bring focus and structure to my life.

Some areas of focus I will be working on:
Bills/Debt
Budget
Email
Work
Each room of my home
Garage
Food planning
Friends
Husband
Family Rules
Family Plans
School
Savings
Goals
Whole 30
Yoga
Meditation
Organization Projects

First up - Bills/Debt.  The whole story of where we are.  Yikes.  I am starting with this because I really think it is the source of my anxiety, shame, and unhappiness.  I have been avoiding the topic for too long and it's time to get it out in the open so I can start fixing it.  More later.

This is me, before.

Have you ever just had enough?

Here's the state of things:

Debt.  Lots of it.
Savings. None to speak of.
House. Needs repairs, organizing, decorating.
Kids.  Need love.
Husband.  Needs more love.
Body.  Needs to be cared for.
Stuff.  Stuff.  Stuff.  It's everywhere and I can't even think anymore.
Friends.  Need to call them back.

I am overwhelmed in a pile of "I'll get to it" and "I need to" and "I'll start tomorrow"
From my head to my toes.  From my 3rd floor attic to my under-the-house storage. 

And I'm ready to start digging out. 
And document it here.  So maybe, just maybe, I can help someone who feels like they are where I am.

This is me, before.
