Arlie Hochschild, a sociologist, first described this as the “second shift” in the 1980s. But it’s still alive today.
When you are trying to do even more working overtime, you’ve then added a third shift. UGH!!! When will it stop? No wonder we are walking around in “overwhelm city”.

Today, I want to share what is working on how to prioritize to minimize overwhelm.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” ~ Jeremiah 29:11
You need to get to know the plans God has for you. Take charge of your life so you can IMPACT with the greatness God created in you.
“One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!”
