Most of our resistance comes from the mental weight of a large project, not the work itself. If you tell your brain you can quit after five minutes, you bypass that "fight or flight" response. Once you've started, you'll almost always find the momentum to keep going. If you still hate it after five minutes, at least you're five minutes closer to the finish line.

Have a productive week!
