Random Tip Week: How to start anything (big) in five minutes
Take out a sheet of paper.
At the top of the page create a title for your project.
Examples:
Save for a house
Train for a marathon
Write the Great American Blog Post
Below the project title, answer this question:
What is the easiest, smallest step I can take toward this goal?
Write it down.
Schedule that into your day — or your next day if you are doing this at night, you owlish thing.
You’re on your way.
Keep asking that question . . . .
. . . and scheduling the next step into your day.
. . . and build from there.
It’s almost inevitable now — can you feel it?
