Overcoming being Overwhelmed

Overwhelmed -- what is overwelmed?

When you become overwhelmed, you are trying to learn or take in too much too fast, you are trying to run before you know how to walk.

Your brain and your stomach are a lot alike - they both have a lot in common.

They both take in information

Your stomach takes in information in the form of food and beverages

Your brain takes in information in the form of education.

Your brain and yuour stomach both then process this information in a process call digestion

Depending on what type / source of information your stomach and brain are getting with depend on it's overall outcome

There is something else your brain and your stomach have in common

they both have the abilty to go through what is called aches and pain.

For your stomach it is known and a stomach ache

For your brain it is known as a headache

There is only one of two things that can cause a stomach ache:

it is either overloaded (filled with more than it can handle)

or

there has been something consumed that you stomach did not agree with

those are the only to things,

You brain works the same way

There is only one of two things that can cause a head ache:

it is either overloaded (filled with more than it can handle). it took in too much information to absorbe that was either too much too qiuck - it was not ready for that much, that fast

or

there is something there that it did not agree with

those are the only to things,

If you will notice I used the word information and not the word education, that is because there is a very big difference between those two words.

Education is something that you can gain knowledge and wisdom from.

Information are things or events that are happening around. Please understand I am not saying that information is not important, I am not saying you can not learn from information - I am saying that everyone sees information differently, and depending on the type of information you are getting or receiving will depend on how your body or mind (brain) is going to responded.

If you take in too much information at one time, the brain is going to become overlaod. The brain operates just like the stomach, it needs to take some time to process and digest all the information that it is recieving.

How do we solve this - take a break, come back to your work / material with some rest and fresh though, a fresh mindest and fresh eyesight. You might be amazed at how much of a difference it will make.

Something here to keep in mind:

before you can run

you have to walk

before you can walk

you have to crawl

you can't do this out of order

-meaning-

you have to absorb a little at a time

then let the education process soak in, let it absorb, let it process, then add to it.

Are we going to make mistakes along the way? It's a process that we call learning. Just make sure it's not the same mistake over and over.

When we become a stronger individual, we go through challenges to do so (there will be a seperate blog for challenges) but depending on how you perceive that challange, will depend on your overall outcome - doesn't mean that you have to fall or become a victom of it. That's how you learn, that's how you grow, that how you become a stronger you, and advance yourself to new knowledge and skills and to new places that you have never even dreamed of.

Anytype of feedback or comments are welcome :)
