Thanks for talking about this. I usually have days like this when I don't feel like doing anything like yesterday I did a thing I'm proud of. I always have a daily todo list and I started with one of them before the end of the day I was able to complete about 5 things out of that list and I felt really good. I'll also be trying the 10-minute rule see how it works for me.

That’s awesome! Lists help me feel organized but also get me overwhelmed at the same time, so I try to have multiple. The minimalists wrote about it: theminimalists.com/someday/. I think their tactic helps keep me focused too.
