Story #1: “There’s so much to do. I can’t keep up. I’m overwhelmed.”
Story #2: “So much opportunity! This is exciting. Let’s see how much I can get done.”
Same facts. Same circumstances. Completely different experience.
Overwhelm isn’t what happens to you. It’s the story you tell yourself about what happens to you.
You can choose the victim narrative or the adventure narrative. The “I can’t handle this” story or the “I’m going to ace this” story.
Your family is watching which story you choose. They’re learning from you whether life’s challenges are exciting opportunities or overwhelming burdens.
Be the leader who chooses the empowering story. Show them what it looks like to see adventure where others see anxiety.
