Purpose: Empty out everything you are holding in your head so you can see it instead of carry it.
When to use: Use this when your head is too full to think straight about any one thing.
Worksheet prompts
- Write down everything you are holding onto. No order, no neat handwriting.
Tasks, worries, things to say, half-remembered errands. - Now look back over it. What has to happen in the next two days?
- What on that page is not yours to carry, or does not need doing at all?
Paper holds things better than a tired head does. Let it.
