Put EASY Items FIRST on Your To-Do List

First things first, as long as they're EASY.
If you've got a huge to-do list, getting enough momentum to tackle the hard stuff could be an uphill battle. That's why I like to start each day with a few simple tasks. If nothing else, it gives you an opportunity to warm up and build some momentum.
With each small task that you cross off your list, your confidence will grow as your list gets shorter. The more small tasks you knock off, the easier the big task will be when you finally attack it.
Like a pitcher in baseball, you can't just walk out on the field in the middle of the World Series and expect to strike out the starting lineup of the New York Yankees. You need to throw some warm-ups.
Your warm-up tasks give you a chance to get into a groove that will sustain you through the rest of the day.
