1:55:56the start's always the hardest yeah, that's old wisdom
1:55:58The first step is the biggest
1:55:58I find if you just force yourself to start, then you will keep going
1:55:58In most countries now though? True
1:55:59there's self-help books about this a common idea is that your own expectation affects the action
1:56:04yeah, it can be hard to get started on a new thing, because the learning curve is hardest at the start
1:56:05No one is coming to save you, so you have to do it yourself
1:56:07It's true, the beginning of any work/project is almost always the hardest part
1:56:07in fitness you learn that the biggest barrier to entry is literally getting someone to walk into the gym
1:56:09I'm the same way. Starting something is usually the hardest for me.
1:56:13IT'S MOMENTUM. THE FLYWHEEL. Once you get it started it becomes easier the more and consistently you do it!
1:56:16One small step at a time, but you need to do it
1:56:18oh man...:eyes-purple-crying:that's very true
1:56:23the first step is the hardest

1:56:39It was the opposite for me. The hard part wasn't doing it, it was doing it every day
1:56:40the hardest part of any activity is just starting it
1:56:41the Shia lebuf just so it video
1:56:41yeah that first step is always the hardest
1:56:42You have to get up to do it specifically, and it helps to block out distractions so you can focus
1:56:45yeah its breaking down "plans" in second-to-second ACTIONABLE steps, instead of "do homework" its "open to page 15 then read first paragraph"
1:56:46That is a thing. It is when you start cleaning it isn't so bad to just continue, but starting can feel like climbing a mountain.
