Getting Things Started is more important than Getting Things Done, if you do not start you cannot get it done.

If you’re not getting something done, it’s probably due to one or more of the following reasons:

Wanting to over-deliver and give clients a 210% effort and not knowing where to start.
Feeling constrained from too much structured planning.
Feeling dazed from lack of any planning.
Overstretching on client projects.
Not really wanting to do it.
Poor health or personal/family disruptions.

Out of these reasons, number 6 is something that you’ll have to solve separately, and numbers 4 and 5 are solved by saying “NO”. Reasons 1,2 and 3 are the ones to watch for: these probably cause most procrastination because you don’t know how to start. These are resolved by taking a simpler starting approach: Getting Things Started
