Start With the Easy Thing (Yes, Really)

This isn't an episode about pushing harder, powering through, or finally finding your motivation. If you've been told you just need more discipline to get your big project done, this is the opposite of that. I'm walking you through the exact approach I use when something feels massive, and I have no idea where to begin — the easy-to-hard method. I'll show you how it actually looks in real life, using my own book launch as the proof: 47 things on a list, zero clue where to start, and the tiny, almost-too-easy first step that got the dominoes falling. We'll get into why we tend to reach for the hardest thing first, why that's the reason we stall, and the two bits of research that explain why starting small isn't avoidance — it's strategy. If you've got a launch you keep circling, an offer you've been meaning to build, a hard conversation you keep pushing off, or a to-do list so long it's become background noise in your brain — this one is for you. You're not stuck because it's too hard. You're stuck because you started at the wrong end. Let's fix the order.
