For me, it's most difficult to get started on something from scratch.
It's easy for me to join in on a project or a task that someone else started. It's even easier for me to respond to something that is urgent.
But it seems that I can never get started on the things I want to do from my own mind, like writing stories, or blogging, or sitting down to draw.

My inability to stick with one project all the way through
