Don’t procrastinate

If you don’t feel like you’re making progress on your goal, or you have that “stuck” feeling, do something — anything — that is in the direction you want to go, no matter how small. One phone call, one sit-up, one drawer.

If you’re truly feeling overwhelmed by a project, concentrate on the next few weeks, instead of the next few years.

For example, instead of thinking you need to lose 50 pounds, think about your calories and exercise just for this week.
