Plus, a live webinar with Joseph Grenny.
| JULY 19, 2023 • VOL. 21 ISSUE 29 | | | Hi John,
Stress.
It’s a modern epidemic. Is there anything you can do to help others cope with it? Today’s Q&A sheds light.
And, in an upcoming webinar with Joseph Grenny, we tackle the question of how to respond when someone shares tough feedback.

| | | | Can You Help Someone Overcome Stress? | | by Emily Gregory |
|
| | My sister is stressed, overwhelmed, at her breaking point, and needs help. She runs two companies, has two small children, and was recently diagnosed with ADHD, on top of the thousands of unread email messages in her inbox and hundreds of tasks on her to-do list. I’ve taken the Getting Things Done (GTD) course and see plenty of tools that I know could help her reduce stress and take control of her chaotic life. What are some things she can do to get started on her GTD journey, and is there anything I can do to help her?

| | | | It’s great to hear that you have found value in GTD and, like so many GTD practitioners, you want to share what you have found to help others. People who love GTD want to spread the love with everyone they love. Which is great. And also not so great. Sometimes enthusiasm for GTD crosses the line into unwelcome evangelism. So remember that you can share some ideas and you can support your sister in taking some steps, but ultimately you can’t make someone use GTD (even if you know they should!). |
