Big tasks tend to overwhelm and demotivate us. As a result, we often don’t bother getting starting on something we want to do.
So instead of having a number of large tasks to do or one big task, just set one small task for now. This will make your work seem more manageable.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
