Drugs!

But the more helpful answer is; I break it down into as many steps as possible in a document or on a piece of paper. Then, when looking at all that is overwhelming, I take the first few steps and put them on their own document. And then I plan a break after those.

And at the end of the break I take the next few.

Now you might be wondering- "flicker, what if I look at that list, and I still can't figure out where to start?"

And my answer is, if I made the list of steps and it still seems like too much, I try making a list for those steps.

But I also treat it like an addict does kicking their addiction.

This huge list might seem like a lot, but even if I can't do it all, even if I can't do much? I can do this one thing. I put on music to make it easier to tolerate, or TV in the background, or both, and resolve to do just one thing.

Because there's times when one thing is too many. So if I do one, I beat that record.

If I do the one thing, I might do another? But that's to decide after the one thing. Just doing one is a big deal. We will start there.
