How to start studying when you feel stuck

When a task feels too large, reduce the starting action until it takes two minutes. Starting with a small visible step can make the rest easier to judge.

A simple way to try it

  1. Open the right file or book.
  2. Write one question you want to answer.
  3. Work on that question for five minutes before deciding what is next.
