I think this goes for any big task/goal that you don’t want to do because it’s overwhelming. Break big tasks into smaller more manageable tasks! The hardest part is getting over that mental hurdle of starting the task. Don’t have time to go to the gym? Work out for 5 minutes in your kitchen. Have a huge paper due next month? Write 1-2 sentences every day. Want to eat healthy? Pick ONE fruit/veggie you like and eat that once a day. Nothing you contribute toward a goal has to be this big daunting task. You’re still contributing.

Reply to LPT: when cleaning, just say I’m going to put away 3 things that are in my sight. It’s a low barrier to get started and you’ll clear the easiest items first. by That-Tea-5651
