I think my perfectionism stops me from even getting started if I’m not careful. I’ll do everything else but the one thing (which in some cases will take truly five minutes). I pretend it motivates me to do everything else. But in reality, I think what helps the most is breaking the task down into smaller steps. I’ll tell myself just do one part now, leave the rest for later. Inevitably I do it all quicker. So perhaps not quite a finishing mindset yet…just a get it started mindset. Love the post!
