Small actions beat big intentions

There are jobs to be done. But are you prioritising the right ones? Cleaning jobs, although mind-numbingly dull, don’t take that long once you put your mind to it and get it done. It’s just the energy and conditions that are required to do it. It’s not something that you might do in the middle of the night or if it’s cold and wet outside. But how much time do we spend thinking about things rather than doing them? There’s always something else that you could be doing, and it’s not necessarily productive to your goals. But if you distract yourself too much, then the task may never be done. That’s why you need to plan what you do. To get those big intentions done, you need to break them down into smaller tasks. That way, it’ll flow from the beginning to the end, and if you feel that you must take a break, you can when you’ve finished a step.
