How to stay calm (without any hacks). This is all you need.
Overthinking --> Write
Uninspired --> Read
Scared --> Take a risk
Stuck --> Walk
Tired --> Sleep
Confused --> Ask
Frustrated --> Move
Burned out --> Take a day off
Impatient --> Review progress
Unmotivated --> Remember your why

It's actually encouraging to read through this list and know that I naturally have most of these as pressure-release-valves in my models.
Overthinking? - Write. No problem here.
Uninspired? - Never.
Scared? - Only watching my son race. My work is all risk. I'm an entrepreneur.
Stuck? - Walk... sometimes. I'm rarely stuck. I just (do) and (build) my way out of everything. Or, create content.
Tired? - All the time. Still working on this.
Confused? - Ask. I'm good at this :)
Frustrated? - Rarely. Keeping active makes this almost impossible. Every constraint is a problem to solve.
Burned out? - All the time. Working out and sauna are the solutions here (for me).
Impatient? - Never. Life moves at the pace it does. Look at the Stoics.
Unmotivated? - Action. Action. Action.
What would you add?
All the best,
