A related (restated?) point I like to keep in mind is: acting produces motivation, but you can't count on motivation to produce action.
Taking even the smallest step (or working on something for even 30 seconds) often overcomes the inertia that keeps the task/project unfinished. A little nudge is all I need to start building the momentum that will carry through to completion.
