Replace: “I’ve got this long to do list and I don’t want to do any of it”

With: “I’ve got this long to do list and I don’t want to *start* any of it”

Because, most of the time when you get going it’s pretty fun right? Maybe you even remember procrastinating then, when you get working, thinking “I have so many cool ideas now if only I’d started sooner I would have time to try them out!”

Don’t want to start a new task, don’t want to change gears feels easier, right? What do you think?

There are so many approaches; David Allen’s GTD system is foundational for me, but can tools can easily spin up into religions.

It’s easy to get so caught up in scaffolding (i.e. systems) that you never work on the building (the work).

Here’s a suggestion: prioritization is a negotiation/avoidance trap. Don’t fall for it. Sure, there may be urgent/on-fire things that need to be done immediately; otherwise, just start at the top and work down. :)
