Self-Reflection
Next steps
What now?
"Next steps" in a relationship are what you do after having a disagreement or argument.
It’s like deciding where to go next on a map after getting lost.
Each step matters because it helps you move forward and find a solution.
By talking calmly, listening carefully, and finding ways to agree, you can come up with a plan to make things better.
"Next steps" are about finding a good way to move on from a tough situation and make your relationship stronger.

Sometimes, life can feel overwhelming and frustrating, like too many things are happening at once.
One way to make it easier is to take a step back and look at everything from a fresh point of view.
Ask yourself, What is most important to you right now?
Then, write down a list of the things that come to mind.
Afterward, read through your list and try to put them in order, from the most important to the least important.
By doing this, you can have a clear focus on what really matters and start to feel more in control.

Overcome self doubt
Of course you messed up
Sometimes, we get stuck when we don't know what to do next.
The pressure can make us feel overwhelmed, both emotionally and physically, as we think about all the choices we have.
In moments like these, it can help to take a step back and try to look at things from a different angle.
You can also talk to a friend or someone you trust to help come up with solutions.
Usually, reaching your goal means taking small steps. Some steps will feel hard, and others might seem small, but each one gets you closer to where you want to be.
The tough part is accepting the changes that need to happen, but once you start taking those steps, it gets easier.

How to get it all done
Start day with small wins:
Never hit snooze
Make your bed
Complete your morning routine
Make a to-do list
Dont look at your phone.
One step at a time: Journal prompts
Before you go to bed tonight, jot down what you did today. Be honest with yourself about how you spent your time.
In what ways do you trick yourself into thinking you’re productive when you’re really just being busy?
How can you rearrange your schedule to make sure you’re doing your most important activities at times when you have the most energy?
