What is it?

Task paralysis is when your brain gets flooded with too much data. It does not know where to start. So, it decides to do nothing at all to stay safe.

Signs & Symptoms

Staring at your to-do list for a long time
Feeling a heavy or frozen feeling in your body
Checking your phone even though you want to work
Feeling huge guilt while you are sitting still

Why does this happen?

Your brain's starter motor is not clicking. It sees a task as a threat or a giant mountain. This triggers your 'fight or flight' response.

The Action Plan

Try breaking down your next task like this to overcome the block:
1

Name the beast

1m

Say out loud the one thing you are avoiding.

2

Shrink the task

2m

Break it down until it feels silly and easy.

3

The five-minute rule

5m

Tell yourself you will stop after five minutes of work.

Stop fighting your brain.
