Daily Soultonic by Dr Sandra C. Duru | Here is how to get over the feeling that you’re never doing enough

Picture this;

You have had sleepless nights developing an Idea, You have drafted out your strategies on how to achieve them.

Your eyes is poised on a goal and you have began the process of achieving it.

Day in day out you put in the effort, strategize and re-strategize, Employ and build relationships with relevant stakeholders in a bid to make the goal a reality yet, it seems there is no head way..

You feel angry frustrated, there is no explanation of what’s going on so you conclude that there must be something wrong.

My dear mgbeke, I have also been there too.

There are several reasons that people can feel inadequate about their accomplishments. One of the reasons might be that the person has set goals that are too high and unrealistic for their particular skill set and abilities.

Perhaps we have set out goals too high, before we are ready to work on them. Another may be that they have set reasonable goals, but they have not taken the steps to accomplish them. This can be due to disorganization, procrastination or struggling to break things down into small and manageable steps.

Both of these issues can make us feel inadequate, and that we are not accomplishing enough, and both need to be looked at so that the person can set reasonable goals that they can accomplish on schedule, and as planned.

I feel like I’m not accomplishing enough…what should I do?

Let’s look at the first issue, setting goals that are unrealistic and beyond their ability level. Math and science are not my strong points, so I will not be applying for the next space shuttle mission anytime soon. This is not saying that anyone is intellectually inferior to others, this is saying that we all have our own strengths and weaknesses, and we need to play to those.
