I think a big thing that will help me will be the language. I don't HAVE to clean or I get to clean so my house will be comfy and open enough to find things, clear my head and have plenty of people come over and enjoy it with me. I think putting a positive spin on my usual to do lists will definitely help me get things done so much faster than usual! Thank you! Tina this is great and just what I needed right now!

Hey Tina,

Just do it.

If something is really important to you, it won’t get accomplished by not doing it. So just do it. The sooner you start the faster you’ll get your desired results.

The easiest way to start is to choose one task that is the most important. What’s the one thing that’ll give you maximum results? Only focus on that one task and just do it.

Once you start, you’ll get momentum, and it’ll be easy to keep going. Plus, because you focused on the most important task, you’ll get maximum results from it too.

I wrote about this – how you should just do it, and the sooner you start the faster you’ll get results (hope the link isn’t spammy – just thought it’s relevant to the topic).

Thanks for sharing your other great tips for eliminating procrastination and getting what we need done so we can achieve what we want faster,
Oleg
