    I also try to write a "Table of Contents" as soon as possible. Break the large piece into small steps.

This is something I tried this year with the papers and essays I had to write: make headings or comments as to what should be there. Worked quite well: even as I was stressing out about them, I was able to make good progress every time.

Thanks for sharing, either way.

One of the features of org-mode that keeps me coming back to it is how nice it makes working with documents that have been pre-planned as a tree of headings/subheadings.

Is it worth learning emacs for? Probably not, but lots of the basic features of org-mode have found there way into plug-ins for other editors.
