One thing at a time

You can spin yourself out of control if you look ahead to all of the tasks on your list, try to multi-task the way you've always been able to with great efficiency [newsflash: your multi-tasking skills are going to be challenged right now!], and think about too many things at once.

So keep an organized To Do list, and while it might help you in the early stages to jump ahead and get some of the later tasks done right now, overall you should limit your focus to just one or two Need to Do items right now. Especially if your wedding is weeks or days away. Stay in this moment, do what's essential now, and know that you can handle every tasks when each one's time comes. You'll feel less pressured, more organized and confident, and you won't push your groom and your bridal party to jump all over the map with you.

Just breathe and take it all one little step at a time. Are you looking ahead at too many things right now? Share your story in the Comments, especially if you try this OTAAT (one thing at a time) process and feel a big difference.
