Prairie, I understand where you are coming from. There are a lot of instructors who like to check small tasks off their lists as confidence builders. They are only able to turn their attention to the bigger tasks when their minds are clear of these smaller things. It's ok to take a balanced approach - allowing yourself to address a few smaller tasks while also chipping away at the larger ones. Also, don't be afraid to break larger tasks into smaller, more manageable chunks.
