Frequently asked questions
What is task paralysis?
Being unable to start despite having the time and the intention, usually because too many options look equally weighted rather than because motivation is low.
Is it the same as procrastination?
No. Procrastination is avoiding a task you've already identified. Paralysis is being unable to identify which task to do — which is why motivation techniques miss.
What breaks it fastest?
Narrowing the choice to one named physical action. Not 'sort out the insurance' but 'open the renewal email and find the policy number'.
