How to start rolling the ball and create a snowballing effect.

For an unpleasant task like making a presentation, focus all your efforts in the first five minutes on smashing that first slide.
As soon as it's done, it becomes a small reward that provides a dopamine release.
This will fuel the rest of the presentation and allow the dopamine to power you forward.
After that, you can easily shift into the indestructible mode and discover how to rise above them.
Today's SMALLENGE is to start the top unpleasant task that you have been postponing, ignoring aka not doing for the past months.
Give it five smashing minutes and see what happens!
Did you end up doing more due to those devoted 5 minutes?
Probably.
You could apply this to your job search, such as when making a dreaded call to a recruiter or following up on a job application you sent in.
Take the #smallenge and let me know how it went.
