Set Yourself Absurdly Low Goals to Kickstart a Project

One of the hardest parts of any project is simply getting started.

Set your sights incredibly low and you will find it’s easy to build up momentum.

Procrastination is a very real problem, but it is one that you might overcome.

It sounds blindingly obvious, but the key to success with any project isgetting the ball rolling.

The tip comes from Leo Babauta on Zen Habits.

Do the smallest possible step.

Yes, I mean smallest possible.

Or “Get up off the couch”.

Or “Write one word”.

Call that a success.

Be easy on yourself and move up from there.
