Be kind to yourself. Things are different now when you have a child, it's really like holding 2 jobs! focus on doing what you can for each moment. Emotions are feedback. Guit is showing you that you're a responsible worker. doesn't mean you have to get rid of that guilt. But focusing too much on the guilt and pile of work, will just make your emotions worse and add to mental exhaustion. take a deep breath to slow down and create space in your mind. Identify your priorities for each day, keep your focus on those priorities. Practise bringing your attention back to these priorities and your current task, because your mind will keep trying to look at all the other outstanding tasks (mental habit). With practice, your mind will focus better and be able to let go of the guilt naturally. Multitasking is overrated, it just drains our battery even faster.
