Why is it SO difficult to start something in contrast with how easy it is to continue...

This might seem like this has an obvious answer I know… (it simply requires more effort to begin any task) but I’m not entirely sure it does…and even if it does, shouldn’t motivation override this?

If there is motivation there to do something, however little or large, it still strikes me as incredibly hard to actually pick up ones tools and begin…even if all the tools are already there in front of you.

I am motivated to do many things at the moment…some more than others… but it seems like even when I feel I really really want to do something I still experience resistance to start. Once I have started it’s a breeze….

I think there’s possibly several things going on here, physical, psychological, perhaps biological… I’d love to hear some of your thoughts…
