One technique that has helped me is what I call "atomic actions". What is the smallest action you can undertake, that you can build upon, which will help you realize your goal?

I've wanted to write for years but thought I had to pen esoteric essays composed of thousands of words. Recently I just started writing short, simple posts that are helping me establish a habit, develop fluency and enjoy the process of writing.

My first post was on this idea of atomic actions: https://alexsingh.svbtle.com/atomic-actions

Maybe it'll be of help to someone else :)
