If you are like most business owners, you’ve experienced overwhelm in your business at one time or another.  Maybe you experience it regularly and for good reason.
 
Hundreds of things are pulling at you at one time.  You’ve got marketing going, production to oversee, calls/emails to return, and employees that need your advice.  
 
It’s never-ending, right?

How do you possibly handle it all?
 
Most small business owners keep almost all of these things in their heads. Ask them where their business plan is.  It’s in their head. Ask where their employee training manual is.
 
It’s in their head.  About the only thing that’s written down is their calendar of appointments.  Even a lot of their to-dos are in their head.

Here’s one simple and powerful way to get out of the Overwhelming ExperienceWrite it All Down.
 
Your overwhelm is in your head because most of how you run your business is in your head.  Start writing it down and you will start having less overwhelm.
 
 Start taking a little time each day to document your business processes.  Make a list today of the processes that you haven’t recorded.
 
 Cover marketing, production, training, accounting, etc. 
Then take one of these areas and document it in detail this week.  Each week, for the next few weeks, document another area.
