“Rule: Resist the temptation to clear up small things first. Remember, whatever you choose to do over and over eventually becomes a habit that is hard to break.

This is not the kind of habit you want to develop or keep. The hardest part of any important task is getting started on it in the first place.

Your job is to feed this part of your mind continually. Motivate”
