September 6th - List all the steps
Sep 06, 2025
Ever feel stuck staring at a big project, not knowing where to begin?
Here’s a simple trick: list all the steps.
When a project feels overwhelming, it’s often because your brain is imagining all the things you need to do, and they feel really big and complex in your brain. By writing them down, and making them concrete, you can stop thinking about them, and see how they’ll actually play out.
Start by writing every step down - even the tiniest ones (in fact, the tinier the easier) - you take the pressure off your memory and create a clear path forward.
Once the steps are out of your head and onto paper, the project stops being a big vague thing in your brain and transforms into a series of doable actions.
When you can clearly see the path, it’s so much easier to take the first step.
What’s one project you’ve been avoiding that you could break down into a list today?
