Life is becoming increasingly hectic and overwhelming from "summary" of CrazyBusy by Edward M. Hallowell

In the midst of the modern world, we find ourselves constantly bombarded with demands and distractions. Our lives are filled with an endless stream of emails, text messages, and notifications, all vying for our attention. We are expected to juggle multiple tasks at once, to be constantly available and responsive. The result is a sense of perpetual busyness, a feeling that there is never enough time to get everything done. This state of constant busyness can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling stressed, anxious, and exhausted. We may find ourselves struggling to focus, to stay organized, to keep up with the demands of our work and personal lives. We may feel as though we are constantly falling behind, always playing catch-up. This feeling of being overwhelmed is not simply a matter of perception. Our lives truly are becoming increasingly hectic and demanding. The pace of modern life has accelerated dramatically in recent years, driven by advances in technology, globalization, and the relentless pursuit of productivity and efficiency. As a result, we find ourselves caught in a vicious cycle of busyness, constantly chasing after the next deadline, the next obligation, the next distraction. We may feel as though we are always on the go, always rushing from one thing to the next, never able to slow down and catch our breath. In the face of this overwhelming busyness, it can be difficult to find moments of peace and relaxation. We may feel guilty for taking time for ourselves, for indulging in activities that bring us joy and fulfillment. We may feel as though we are constantly falling short, never able to meet the impossibly high expectations that society has set for us. But it is important to remember that we are not powerless in the face of this busyness. We have the ability to take control of our lives, to set boundaries and prioritize our time and energy. By learning to say no to the things that do not truly matter to us, by carving out time for the activities and relationships that bring us joy, we can begin to reclaim a sense of balance and peace in our lives.
