Jim Kwik says vague, overwhelming tasks kill motivation. Ask yourself: what's the smallest thing I could do right now? Breaking goals into tiny steps builds momentum and gets you unstuck.
A lot of people, they get unmotivated because they are picturing something they have to do, and it's either something that's not clear or it's overwhelming. It's taking energy out of your, your body, your brain. It's taking energy out of your life and your day. You have to figure out that activity and you need to break it down, and you have to be able to make it into something that's bite-sized, super small, simple steps. And the question you want to ask yourself is, what is the smallest smallest thing I could do to be able to make progress and advance to reach that objective, that goal.
