Motivation

How do you get motivated to start a task? I can think about doing it all day, but getting started is next to impossible.

Headphones with music or a cleaning video playing! Or just tell yourself to *not* do that task (PDA tip).

make lists. and when the list doesnt motivate you, make a more specific list.

Dividing tasks to really small things help me personally. Instead of saying “clean bathroom” which sounds horrible, I say “clean sink”, “clean toilet”, “clean shower” and so on here in Numo. Then I just use Numo task view where my mobile phone only has “clean sink 🧼” on the _whole_ screen. Then I start with that and avoid thinking about anything else. Afterward the task feels less horrible (or even enjoyable) step by step. There’s a lesson here in the app about that called “touch the task”. I hope it can help a little. Note: I’m on meds, which also helps my brain shut up during these tasks one by one. Everyone is different of course but at least this works for me most of the time. Good luck 👍
