Breaking through the wall of inertia

What is the best way to stop procrastination?

... finding the motivation to move, or
... first moving then finding the motivation

I find that the longer I put off action, then the larger the inertia builds up, eventually becoming a wall where nothing gets done.

So I say, when stuck, do something. Anything. Anything to break the hold of inertia.

Then, once underway, find the motivation or direction, or even make a plan.

But first, move.

For heaven's sake, don't get sucked into first finding your "motivation"... it becomes a black hole that is impossible to escape!

"Action conquers fear.”

"Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you ready or not, to put this plan into action.”
- Napoleon Hill
