"Find the small tasks that are actually the tasks, and then just do one of them. And then do a different one. And honor your limits."
Getting unstuck, figuring out where to start... sometimes there is so much to do, so much even that we want to do and find pleasure in doing, that choosing where to start becomes overwhelming.
Let's look at a few different strategies for finding our starting point, including (in no particular order, because what works will alway be individual to the person and their circumstances):
-start with the easiest thing, the low-hanging fruit.
-start with the thing you're passionate about, following your intensiveness.
-start with the thing that causes you anxiety, because once you have done it you will be free of that anxiety, which has been haunting you every time you think about that task anyway.
-start with the thing what will bring you pleasure. You do not have to put off your own pleasure.
-start with something that you will feel good about doing for someone else.
We're sure there are more, but this is a place to start.
