LPT When you're just sitting there, with a ton of things to do, but you just can't seem to get started, act on your first impulse and just start doing something
I've often found myself not knowing where to start, so I just sat there and didn't get anything done. In my head, I’d go over the to-do list again and again, trying to prioritize, analyze, and so on—in the end, I’d have maybe three new plans but no results.
Now I do it this way: I briefly think about a few things I need to do, and as soon as the thought “wash dishes” flashes through my mind, I get up right then and there and go to the sink—before I can even think, “I’d rather do something else.”
That makes it much easier for me to get started, and sometimes it motivates me so much that I do a second or third dish right away.
At first, it annoyed me because I realized that it’s much better for my body to “just do something” instead of making some super-clever plans, but I’ve gotten used to it.
