A possible way to rid yourself of anxiety

Anxiety is awful.

And it seems to me that anxiety, or any form of anxiousness, has a huge impact on the likelihood of us emotional eating.

Feelings of anxiousness aren't fun. And when we emotionally eat - that provides a temporary escape. Of course, 5 minutes later when we're done eating, those feelings of anxiousness come back plus we feel bad for having eaten junk. (This = a double whammy!)

To me, it seems that a big part of anxious feelings come from not getting things done. THEREFORE, if we could just get things done, we'd feel a lot less anxious!

When we're not accomplishing our outcomes and tasks, it's time to reset them.

Let's take a looksy...

1. You're shooting to accomplish Task B in two days.

2. Two days come, and you haven't accomplish tasked B. FAIL!

What goes on?

1. Subconsciously, without any concrete goal set, we start working slower trying to accomplish Task B.

2. A week passes by

3. Two weeks

We finally finish.

What we had hoped to accomplish in one or two days turns into TWO WEEKS!!!

Crazy time wasted = more things to do = more anxiety = wanting to eat crap.

Tremendous opportunities to accomplish more things = down the tubes

Why humans suck with goals...

1. Anne sets a goal.

2. She fails at her goal.

3. She keeps working on that goal.

4. Crazy time wasted!

5. She eventually finishes her task without any rhyme or reason - weeks, months, years later!

Check it...

When we set concrete goals, we subconsciously drive our selves to complete Task B by Date T with maximum effort.

When we have no due date for a task, we aimlessly plow through our days hoping to accomplish something-anything-I'll-complete-it-sometime.

Setting no concrete due date to accomplish that task makes us expend way more time than necessary. (A task that takes two days turns into two weeks because we didn't set a deadline for it.)

TRY THIS INSTEAD:

1. Pick a task. (I will accomplish X task by Y date)

2. When the date comes, set a new goal with a new due date (with the original goal included if you haven't finished it.)

3. Repeat

You'll start accomplishing a lot more things, quicker, as you become more effective with your time.

BONUS! For tasks that take three minutes or less: do them as soon as you get them. Do not put them off.

Double BONUS! For tasks that take 3 minutes or more (but no more than say, two hours): Set a deadline. Say it's 3:30pm and you're about to start something that'll take ten minutes. Tell yourself you can't do anything BUT finish this task because you ONLY have until 3:40pm.

It's one of the best games you'll ever play.

You = getting lots of things done = on time = less anxiety = you not wanting to eat crap to cover up anxious feelings = you looking and feeling awesome = everyone wins!
