Help me tackle something I've been putting off: {{the messy space, task, or backlog}}. Give me: - The smallest first step I can start in 5 minutes. - A simple order to work through it so I don't get overwhelmed. - One rule to keep it from piling up again. Keep it realistic, I have {{time available}}, not a whole free weekend.
