Classic recommendation… one I don’t seem to understand. sounds easy, but pretty impossible for me to do.
How do i fix it ????
I want to do many things (creative and university related….) but i can’t seem to be able to sit down and start.. if i do, 20 minutes of work seems like an eternity so i give myself a break… all of a sudden it’s been two days and i still haven’t finished one simple task.

1. (You’ve heard it before, but it’s critical) Set time goals, not accomplishment goals. If I tell myself: ”I’ll get this project done before noon!”
and then I don’t, I get disheartened. But, if I say: I’ll do 2 hours before 10am, thats easy!
2. Just break off that first layer of work. Idk what your job is but like for example: simply import the footage. put in one little chunk of data into excel. code 16 lines (is that a lot?) carve one peg. draw just the outline, etc, etc. you get the idea. For me, just getting one tiny part done puts into perspective how fast I could do it, and that helps a lot

If you’re anything like me, it eats me inside when I have so many things planned out for my day, I write it out in my journal, I’m like yeah I think an hour to clean the whole house makes sense. But sometimes time slips away from us here and there and maybe you undershot how much time things would actually take and there are only so many hours in a day. Sometimes you gotta take a step back and breathe, I always think back to this one quote from Atomic Habits by James Clear, “never miss twice”. It’s ok to miss a day if you’re trying to get into a new habit or you meant to finish that pesky thing that you never got around to, the key is to just pick it back up the next and you’ll find your footing again. That’s what builds momentum and gets you into the swing of things again. Ok bye love u, ur doing great sweetie 💗 (me to me 🙂↔️)

But the best way is to simply do it. set a time to do something, sit down and start, and keep going for like at least 15 minutes. Preferably with your phone far away. And then you KEEP doing this repeatedly. I find having creative partners also helps to hold me accountable
