The Do Something Principle Helps You Overcome Procrastination

The author Tim Ferris relates a story he once heard about a novelist who had written over 70 novels. He replied that if he forced himself to write 200 crappy words, more often than not the act of writing would inspire him and before he knew it, he'd have thousands of words down on the page. If we follow the, do something principle, failure feels unimportant. You can become your own source of inspiration. Action is always within reach. And with simply doing something as your only metric for success, then even failure pushes you forward.
