Indeed. Like many people say, starting something is half the battle. For example I am currently postponing for days, a 5 minute phone call that I am supposed to make to a colleague. Not even big stakes -- just a new topic i am supposed to initiate work on. There is a negative outcome possible -- blame on me for slacking -- if I don't do this. Still I am struggling to make myself pickup the phone and make that call. Rest of my duties as a professional and as a family member seem to be going one fine while this item keeps getting kicked down the road. 2 days and counting. I don't have any clue why.
