      Let’s give credit where credit is due: this one is a W for you.

      In my personal experience, I find knocking out small tasks (like folding laundry, putting laundry away — yes they are two tasks) is a great way to build up momentum for bigger things, but not always. And that’s okay. My goal every day is to do at least one thing. Just one. If I do more than one then I have exceeded expectations. Keep pushing! 👊

          I am in the same boat. So many things that need to be done, but I just can’t ever figure out where to start. I always worked better when there was someone there to body double with me.

            Hey, don’t be so hard on yourself. There are even co-working spaces for remote workers to stay motivated and work more productively just because they’re in the presence of other people, even if those other people are working for different companies in unrelated projects. There is absolutely nothing wrong with getting an accountability buddy, even if they’re online only. I’d be happy to be/have one!
