083: 4 Mindset Shifts to Feel Less Guilty about Unfinished Tasks from an Executive Function Coach
Episode 83
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
"I didn’t get as much done as I wanted to." If you've said this to yourself more times than you can count, you're not alone. It's one of the most common things I hear from my executive function coaching clients.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
- Why your brain fixates on unfinished tasks (and what "open loops" have to do with it)
- How all-or-nothing thinking convinces you that nothing you did today counts
- Why comparing yourself to your past self or to other people can quietly sabotage your executive functioning
- How to adjust your expectations to fit your actual capacity
- The mindset shift that ties it all together and helps you give yourself credit, even on the hard days
