Take out a sheet of paper.

At the top of the page create a title for your project.

Examples:

Write it down.

Schedule that into your day — or your next day if you are doing this at night, you owlish thing.

. . . and scheduling the next step into your day.

. . . and build from there.

It’s almost inevitable now — can you feel it?
