What is it?

It is when your brain gets overwhelmed by too many choices. You feel frozen and can't pick where to start. It is like having way too many browser tabs open at once.

Signs & Symptoms

Feeling frozen in one spot
Scrolling your phone for hours
Feeling heavy or tired
Staring at a to-do list for a long time

Why does this happen?

Your brain's starter motor is struggling. It sees a big task as a scary threat. This makes your brain hit the emergency brake to keep you safe.

The Action Plan

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

Name the feeling

1m

Say out loud that you are feeling stuck right now.

2

Move your body

2m

Stand up and stretch for a moment to reset.

3

Pick one micro-task

1m

Choose one tiny thing that takes almost no effort.

4

Use a five-minute timer

5m

Start the task but tell yourself you can stop when the bell rings.

Stop fighting your brain.
