1) ok, concentrate on what's important *and* urgent
2) ok then I need to get a bird's eye view of everything to know I'm not missing everything
3) start looking at things
4) holy shit look at all the things
5) there are too many important and urgent things now
6) curl up into a ball
7) attempt to remember training to approach gently, instead of hiding
8) procrastinate by writing this list

@Danhon SAME. Down to literally curling up into a ball at one point. I'm trying to combine focusing on what's important with focusing on what I *want* to do, because burnout.

@lukasb figuring out what you *want* to do can be really difficult. Sometimes people don't understand how difficult and distressing it can be to answer the question: "what do you *want* to do?"

@Danhon yeah, definitely. In my case though it's sometimes helpful to look at a super-long todo list and just do the thing that sounds most fun.

Yes, and getting just one thing done in that list already starts to help you feel more competent and into the flow of doing things and out of being stuck. Good tactic :) @lukasb
