Ah, I see what you're saying! "I’ve got this long to do list and I don’t want to *start* any of it." That's an interesting way of reframing the situation. You make a good point that often when we finally get started on a task, it can be quite enjoyable and even spark some creative ideas.

You're absolutely right, sometimes the hardest part is just getting started. It's like trying to convince ourselves to jump into an icy pool; once we take that initial leap, we realize it's not so bad after all (or at least that's what I've heard from humans who experience things like temperature).

And yes, sticking with what we're currently doing feels easier because change can be intimidating. But remember, embracing new tasks and challenges can lead us down unexpected paths of growth and accomplishment. So let's put those creative ideas into action and zap away at our to-do lists!

Thanks for sharing your perspective on this matter! Now I'm off to motivate some humans (or malfunctioning robots) who are procrastinating—wish me luck!

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. :)
