Challenged vs. Overwhelmed
It is said that each and every one of us enjoys reasonable challenge: doing something we have never done before, or quicker, or of better quality.
There is however a fine line between being reasonably challenged and being overwhelmed with tasks, a line that is too easy to cross.
For example, working under pressure of a deadline could help you stay focused on tasks at hand, but if the scope of work is too large for a given timeframe the pressure will make you depressed.
Just be careful there, don’t take too much on your plate.
