So there's many ways to approach this, but one really effective one is to look at it in small bitesize chunks. So first and foremost, if you've got some simple tasks that you could get out of the way very quickly, I might start with them because it's going to build some momentum. But then I'd also look at the rest of the tasks. And if you're seeing them in sort of chunks of more than a half an hour, break them down. They are not two hour tasks, four hour tasks. They're are a whole series of smaller actions that you just need to break, chunk it up a little bit and you'll find it much more manageable. And that thing that I mentioned earlier, momentum, will be built. Because you'll be looking at 15 minutes on this piece, 15 minutes on this piece, and suddenly you're achieving and achieving and achieving. Rather than looking at this four hour task you've got to do, which actually isn't, it's just a series of smaller pieces of work that you need to break down.
