Just start shit.
I am amazing at starting. I start so many projects. My way of procrastinating is to start something new rather than work on what I should be working on. I absolutely suck at sticking with something until it's done. I am not a "completer finisher". Suggesting someone like me should "Just start shit." is literally the worst advice. :)
- bittercynic 5y agoThis is a slightly different meaning of start. It doesn't mean to start something _new_ necessarily.
- endymi0n 5y agoThis. Just start finishing! :) „Just“ as in: I‘m still trying to figure this stuff out as a lifelong procrastinator but other ingredients than momentum conservation which was also huge for me were self-acceptance, self-forgiveness and especially „Tiny Habits“ (the book) Establishing triggers in my life that put me back on track in autopilot mode were some of the largest game changers for me. The biggest one being that I now have a 10 step go-to-bed routine that sets my next-morning-self up for a great mood and start into the day. Plus, it‘s a gentle, daily reminder of caring and being gentle to myself.
- pdimitar 5y agoI think "start the thing" here refers to things you might not want to do right now -- like your job, for example. I don't think they were talking about your hobbies.
