An effective way to overcome inertia? Please, 3Q

I'm going to do it. Really did it. Maybe you can wait a little longer.

Take a break, watch TV, go on the Internet, and chat for a while. I'll do this tomorrow. Each of us has the experience that something needs to be done and inertia always prevails.

How to overcome inertia has become an important topic of how to complete tasks and GTD. Paul's Tips recently mentioned in an article how to overcome inertia and get things done in six steps: Acknowledging the cost of hard work and valuing pleasant results The main reason why most people delay work due to inertia is because it costs us a little bit of hard work, even if it's just a little bit.

It's like we all like a clean kitchen, but washing dishes is a nasty job. The process of craving results but not being willing to endure pain. A good place to start is to acknowledge the price to pay, but emphasize the outcome of the work that is done, and affirm that the result is worth the price.

What is this pain compared to the final sense of accomplishment? Improve the ability to endure hardship Everyone has a certain tolerance for hardship, and they can improve it little by little. A good way to do this is to start with small things and relatively simple things, and work your way up to gradually increase your acceptance of "hard work".

Start small and don't do nothing. When you know there's something small that you need to do right away, do it right away, without a minute. If there's a voice in your heart that tells you a bunch of reasons what's holding you back from doing it, ignore them and do it right away.

Don't mumble, it's just a trivial thing when you're done, it's not worth thinking about. When you can overcome small obstacles to complete the work, as long as you learn to divide the heavier work into many small parts, and complete them part by part, the big difficulties will not be a problem. However, it is important to make sure that these small pieces are really meaningful, rather than making excuses to procrastinate.

Don't plan too much, do it right away Don't spend too much time organizing and planning, just looking at the whole will make you see how hard and hard it is to do it, you should find small breakthrough points that you can put into action and start acting right away. No big thing can be achieved overnight, and if you break through a small difficulty one by one, you can achieve the final victory. Your task is to find the next thing you can do right away.

Don't be afraid to waste time Another reason that holds a lot of people back is the fear of wasting time. It seems that you can't start without arranging everything. In fact, as long as you start to do it, it can't be a complete waste, even failure is valuable, and we can gain a lot of experience from failure.

The most important thing is that in trying, we can achieve success in addition to failure.
