Mostly, starting something is the hardest part. Don’t wait for motivation or an external force to push you. There’s a simple trick to convince your brain: commit just 5 minutes to the task. More often than not, once you begin, you’ll keep going. Don’t let procrastination take over. Just start, and things will fall into place.

If it’s a longer task and you need motivation to continue, remind yourself that leaving things incomplete creates mental clutter. Tell yourself: I will finish what I started and celebrate my win. I am unstoppable!
