Clear Goal & Feedback
Define the goal very clearly. We can write it down in paper with clear end point or finish line i.e. there should be a clear indication of completion of the work just like submitting a project or publishing this post.
After creating a clear goal, we need a clear feedback. For that you can track your progress in any app or you can check the box of "Writing 2 blog post for this week" (it's for me) or something like that. We just need to see our progress that will keep us going for the next step.
