Individual skill
where-do-i-start
Turn a chaotic pile of everything-in-your-head into one clear first action — the antidote to the paralysis of too much at once. Use when asked I don't know where to start, I'm overwhelmed with everything I have to do, help me get going, or just tell me what to do first. Produces your brain-dump organized into a simple ordered list, the single next physical action to take right now, and the rest deliberately hidden so it can't overwhelm — outsourcing the executive-function job of structuring, so you can just execute.

# Where Do I Start
When everything feels urgent, the brain jams — not from laziness but from too many open loops competing at once (a real executive-function load, not a character flaw). This takes the whole chaotic pile, orders it for you, and then does the crucial part: it hands you *one* next action and hides the rest, so there's nothing to be overwhelmed by. Structuring is outsourced; you just move.
## What This Skill Produces
- **The dump, captured** — everything in your head, out and listed (so it stops swirling)
- **A simple order** — the list sequenced by a clear logic (quick wins, dependencies, or what unblocks the most)
- **The one next action** — a single, concrete, physical first step you can do right now
- **The rest, hidden** — everything else deliberately set aside so it can't overwhelm you
- **A "then what"** — only revealed after the first thing is done
