What is one to do when your mind is too tired? Mental exhaustion is overtaking your every move and your thoughts. Your mind is foggy. You're just plain tired.
It's not like you have an excuse for being tired. You haven't run a marathon or swam the Atlantic. You're just tired.

You might be thinking it has to do with something pivotal in your life. A major decision. A BIG presentation around the corner. A project that's required more of you.
This mind tiredness is mental exhaustion. It doesn't have to come from major events in your life, even though it can. Mental exhaustion simply put is TOO MUCH!
- too many decisions
- too many commitments
- too many responsibilities
- too many demands
- too many distractions
Too much of too many!
There is no time for a break. No rest for the weary. All you do is keep pushing and pushing. And unfortunately, you push until a breaking point.
The stress becomes too taxing on the body. Sleep is suffering; therefore rejuvenation and restoration of your mind and body is suffering too. Here you go.
Too much of too many!
Let me ask a weird question. What would happen if you stop doing the too much of too many?
Well, if you are that Type A personality who has to do everything yourself or it won't be done right, you think the world will not be able to get along without you.
But in all honesty, the world will go on. It's YOU that will have the issue!
You cannot serve the ones you love if you are mentally and physically exhausted, not to mention spiritually exhausted too.
You need to take a break. Bridge the G.A.P.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Bridge the G.A.P.!When your mind is too tired, you are suffering from mental fatigue. This can show itself in:
- Physical fatigue. Your body feels tired. Lying down doing nothing is very appealing.
- Irritable and impatient. You are quick to react with a harsh tone of voice or get upset or angered easily.
- Hard to focus and concentrate. Distractions are more predominant in your day. You don't finish projects as easily. And decisions are the last thing you want to make.
Take a deep breath for just a moment. Think back to a time where this was happening.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation by prayer and petition with thanksgiving present your requests to God. And the peace of God which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 4:6- G - Guard your heart and mind. Be careful how you allow yourself to tire. Growing weary puts an extreme about of stress on the mind and the body. Make time for sleep and rest. Use the word NO more often. Surround your heart that which lifts up. Feed your mind with goodness.
- A - Ask for help. You were not created to do life alone. Surround yourself with people who understand and support you. If you hang out with negative people who drain the life out of you, how will you have life?
- P - Pray and be present with thanksgiving. Be grateful even in the trials. Be grateful even in the good.
When your mind is too tired, God is telling you something. Be quick to listen and slow to speak.
(James 1:19 My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.)
You were not created to reach your dream in a day. You were create to day dream. Let God open and close the doors. Ready your mind, body, and spirit.
"Bridge the G.A.P.!"
