      Quiet time: I started sitting in silence doing absolutely nothing. It's like meditating but you don't have to stress about doing Anything! It allows you to connect and collect your thoughts. It's wild what kind of profound realizations I had just sitting there doing nothing.... Also, therapy is great Also, identify the root of your anxiety. Be honest. If it is procrastination related, own it. Once I started being honest with myself, a lot of my anxiety went away....

      I know that most of my anxiety comes from procrastination and avoiding tasks that aren’t of interest to me. I’ve been recently listening to Essentialism by Greg McKeown - it’s been helpful understanding the essential things in life and helps you clear your mind of the areas in life that aren’t priority
