In this video, I'm going to teach you a "magic trick" that I use almost every day. Why's it magic? Because of what it makes disappear.

Yup, using a pitcher of water, a mason jar, and a piece of paper, I will show you a trick that makes overwhelm vanish.
I call it a "brain dump." You've got to see it to believe it.

It's pretty nifty...and works like a charm. The next time you feel overwhelmed, don't let it get the best of you–make your overwhelm disappear with a brain dump.

Even when you're feeling stressed and like you're losing control of your time, this strategy helps ground you in the present and make progress on the things that matter.

In the comments, let me know how using the "brain dump" strategy works for you.
