When things are piling up, back logging, and there is more work to be done than you have time and staff to do it, you are going to pay one of the 4 following costs:
The Cost of Missing Out – You’re going to have to turn down some of the opportunities in front of you. And you’ll have to risk missing out on something by just saying no altogether and crossing it off your list of projects.The Cost of Hiring More Staff – You need to invest money into bringing on more people to help you do all of the work that you’re creating.The Cost of Doing it Yourself – You will have to pick up the slack personally on the things that your team can’t get to and do some of those things yourself. This is typically the most expensive option because you’re either paying someone else to do something at their rate of pay or you’re paying yourself to do it at yours.The Cost of Waiting – You can choose to be okay with the project or task being delayed until your team completes the existing things in the queue and has the necessary capacity to take on these additional items. This is also known as patience – and very few people today have any.
What is important to realize, whether you like it or not, is that when you are overwhelmed you’re always going to pay one of these 4 costs.

It can feel hopeless when you’re overwhelmed and there is more to get to than you can ever possibly do, but that’s just a feeling.

The reality is that you are very much in control. You have 4 choices. And you are capable of making any of the 4 choices… but you will have to choose one.

So make your choice and be okay with it.

Because what you do not want is the cost of extra stress and feeling helpless.
