Responsibilities

Joke's on you, I prioritize the big task first, and still don't work on it, so nothing gets done!
- Yeah, I caused myself a lot of misery by trying to follow the "eat the frog first" strategy, and get the big important stuff out the way before the easy / less critical things. Just led to me wasting days not doing the big thing, and all the little things were snowballing into much larger problems.
  Now I go with "put the frog on your plate" - I tell myself honestly that the important task should be top of my list, and then proceed to avoid it by doing all the other shit. Sure, I have to deal with the problems of leaving something important til the last minute (and they are numerous) but at least everything else isn't also on fire.
  
  What about this: do one small thing, then do one part of the big thing, then repeat until the big thing is done.
Oh no, where did the light blue task go??! PANIK
- The light blue task represented making a list of tasks to do
- That’s the task you forgot about until the deadline passed 😌
- It got done! How can anybody be so cruel?
Bold off you to assume I'll make progress on the small tasks while I procrastinate on the big one.
What's the original link?
