how to get things done

Here's an interesting philosophical post about how acceptance of how things are can help you to get things done.

I would add three more suggestions.

1. Start.

2. If it's a cleaning task, handle each item only once.

3. Take five.  E.g., grade five essays, then take a break.  Do five more, etc.

You can do it!

Excellent link, and good advice! I find that whatever is on my "have to do" list, there is something positive to be found in just tackling even the most distasteful tasks...even if it is just knowing it's done!
