Stick to the Plan

Hutchins wisdom

Me Grandpa Hutchins, he was I think a wise man. In fact, he offered me one of the best pieces of wisdom anyone has ever offered me.

When faced with a bunch of chores you really don't want to do, do the toughest one first.

I believe he's absolutely right about that. I've found that it makes work easier in the long run. It's almost as though once you have that toughest task out of the way, then do the next toughest, you build a moment that gets work done more quickly. You begin (at least in my experience) to almost look forward to the next chore. And each task does, I really believe, in fact become easier.

Hutchins wisdom. Try it when you're up against the wall. It will help, I guarantee it.
