Overwhelmed? 2 Tips to Keep You Going

Picture
​​I’m an introvert but even that hasn’t kept me from feeling a bit untethered by the “safer at home” order in my county. I’m used to working from home, but last week I started to lose my sense of accomplishment and direction, with all of my time suddenly unstructured. I’ve got a million things I “should” be doing, but I felt like I wasn’t getting anything done.
 
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the many demands of spending all your time at home – whether you’re alone or with your whole family – I have 2 ways to help relieve your stress and make the most of this time of isolation:

Introducing Designed 2 Stick, January 23, 2020

I’m Mrg Simon (Mrg rhymes with berg) and I am the force that is Designed 2 Stick. But what exactly IS Designed 2 Stick and where does that name come from?
 
First and foremost, Designed 2 Stick – or D2S as I sometimes call it – is about transforming from the ordinary to the extraordinary.
