Absolutely. Sometimes we have to break it down to one moment at a time, or one task. "All I need to do is get out of bed." Then from there, "all I have to do is make some coffee", etc. My biggest weakness with this is motivating with guilt or self-ridicule. My wife has been great for this by reminding me to motivate myself with kindness instead. Breaking things down to extremely small pieces helps for sure!
