"There is so much to know. I'm overwhelmed."
I felt the same way when I was doing my initial training and when the first child moved in. You are not alone.
It's important to remember: you do not have to MEMORIZE. You just need to be organized and be able to find and reference the information later.
Recognize what works best for you and the way your brain works. For me, I like digital organization through bookmarks, saves, email, calendar reminders, and Google drive. This way I can quickly search and find the information I need.
Other people like tangible, printed material. In this case, I recommend investing in a good printer, an ink subscription service, and 4-inch binders!
How do you stay organized?
