When faced with a big project or a daunting task, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The sheer size of the task can make it seem unmanageable, leading to procrastination and frustration. However, breaking tasks into smaller, more manageable pieces—what we call micro-goals—can make a significant difference in overcoming that overwhelm. By transforming a large, intimidating task into a series of bite-sized steps, you not only reduce resistance but also make progress feel more achievable, leading to increased motivation and productivity.
