You may have one or two or more particulary important projects, especially ones that fall into that special 20% area that actually brings you income (versus the 80% range that counts as just being busy, or makes you feel busy).Pull one of them out right now (a project, an important one), and look at all of Next Actions for it.. put the scary ones, or the ones that sound hard and those are your frogs.
Brian Tracy makes a great point in his Eat That Frog book:
If you wake up in the morning, and you KNOW that you have to eat a live frog today, then the best thing you could possibly do, is swallow that sucker NOW. Then the rest of the day could only get better.
So pick the worst Next Action you could possibly think of, and just eat it!
That next action could be doing a necessary but tedious upgrade to software that you use. Just do it now, and enjoy the rest of the day. The worst is over.
