“Brick by brick, buildin’ a wall that no one could break
Flip by flip, glad I could help so you could be straight”

– Will Smith on Joyner Lucas’ “Will (Remix)

Whenever it seems like there’s too much on your plate, or you’ve got so many tasks that it gets overwhelming, it helps to break things down into smaller things. Otherwise, that feeling can take over and drown you. I’ve struggled with this a lot over the years, and I’m trying different methods to manage projects better. So, let’s talk about it!

Before we do though, I first wanna say welcome! Welcome to the Ajaxxx.com May 2020 Opinions Column. For those that are new to the site, this is the place where I talk about whatever’s going on within my mind. For those returning, welcome back!

“Keep grinding boy, your life can change in one year
And even when it’s dark out, the sun is shining somewhere”

– J. Cole on “Premeditated Murder

It’s really easy to get overwhelmed, especially when you have a lot on your plate.

“Dig deep in your mind, no pressure, no diamonds”
– Fat Joe on “Lord Above

They say that in order to behave differently, you have to think differently. Whether that’s looking at things from a different perspective, or approaching things in a brand new way, these types of moves can help you progress more effectively. And whether it’s moving more efficiently, or cutting out the clutter, there’s lots of things we can do to become better versions of ourselves. Basically what I’m trying to say is…maybe we can benefit from a mindset change.

Before we get ahead of ourselves though, WHAT’S UP people? What’s going on? Welcome to the December 2019 Opinions Column. For those that are new to the site, this is where I talk about what’s going on with me and what’s on my mind. For those that are returning, welcome back! With December upon us (wow, where’d the year go?), I thought it would be a good opportunity to talk about how we can shift our mindsets to become better…especially ahead of the new year AND decade (whoa).
