Episode 240: Low-Hanging Fruit

Doing the easiest thing first (the low-hanging fruit) gets a bad rap. But it can actually make everything easier. In this episode Janine and Shannon discuss strategies around using low-hanging fruit to get stuff done. Discussion topics include: • Low-hanging fruit counts! • How allowing yourself to address low-hanging fruit first can help you get started • Starting with something easy and stopping when it stops being easy • Shannon's ingenious closet-cleaning method • How there's always the lowest hanging fruit • Addressing low-hanging fruit in any situation • Low-hanging fruit in task management • Remembering that you don't have to do everything at once • Counting every step (even the easiest step!) • Magical words: "Done for now" • Giving yourself credit for what you're doing • Making sure your next action feels really doable (and if it doesn't, scale it back or move on to something else) Visit the show notes at www.gettingtogoodenough.com for links!
