Just a Little Instead

So when you have a lot to do — either separate small tasks, or even project oriented ones — do you procrastinate? Not wishing to do this because that isn’t done, and that would take a while and you’re not ready to do that right now.

Logically you know that if you do just a little it will help, but for some reason this logic doesn’t overpower the inertia of your bad habits, hang-ups, fears, anxieties or just plain sloth. It’s easier to idle, inert, inactive, insecure. You can make lists though, lists like a mother fucker. Color-coded, indexed, categorized, prioritized, sanitized lists. Clean, clear, tangible lists. Safe lists.

Doing though, that’s different and difficult. Isn’t it? Do you know what I mean? You do, don’t you? Well this was “doing just a little” instead of not. It’s your turn. It’s not so bad once you get started.
