the first day, the goal might be "write out a list of manageable goals". There you go, you did the thing.

I have to do this to myself.

my list of things for the day:

   Marinate pork fajita strip

get bloodwork done

practice music for orchestra concert on the weekend

edit my paper for 1 hour

do laundry

make my bed

practice the viola da gamba

they're all pretty manageable, and have an end point goal, a stop point. I'm not just nebulously editing my paper, i'm working on it for an hour. I'm not just practicing my bass music, I'm running through the stuff for the concert. the only nebulous one is the gamba practice, and that's because it's "for fun".
