Achieving things.

There is a great deal of advice about how to achieve things. There is even a system called [Getting Things Done](https://gettingthingsdone.com/what-is-gtd/?ref=katecarruthers.com)™️ or the [Pomodoro](https://www.themuse.com/advice/take-it-from-someone-who-hates-productivity-hacksthe-pomodoro-technique-actually-works?ref=katecarruthers.com) technique. I have flirted with many techniques over the years (and I just lose lists) but it all comes down to **one thing**.

Do one thing each day towards your goal. At the end of a week you will have done seven things towards achieving your goal.At the end of a year you will have done many things towards your goal.

**Do one thing.**

That is a lot less intimidating than a huge list for me.
