Great advice, unless you’re looking exactly for a way to do something without feeling bad.
There are roughly two types of people: those who chase goals and those who seek ways. Both are valuable, but this advice only covers the former. Goal-chasers can run with a pebble in their shoes for a while and enjoy a reward in the end. Way-seekers run forever, there’s no end, their joy is in the run itself. It’s hard to “just do it” when you’re doomed to do it all your life till death and it’s not fun.
