10 Betty-Approved Hacks to Tackle the Tasks You’re Avoiding (and Finally Get Unstuck)

February 06, 20262 min read

Let’s be real, babe — you’ve got goals.


Big ones. But right now? You’re stuck in the middle of a to-do list full of “ugh.”

You’re avoiding a task (or five), and it’s making you feel behind, anxious, and maybe a little bit like you’re failing. (Spoiler: you’re not.)

Whether it's updating your website, writing that email sequence, or organizing your digital files, we've all been there. But avoiding the work won’t make it go away (sorry, love).

💖 That’s why I’ve rounded up 10 Betty-approved hacks to help you stop avoiding and start checking things off with style and sanity.

10 Hacks to Get Unstuck and Take Action

1. Break It Like Betty:
Chop that monster task into itty-bitty, baby-sized pieces. One teeny action is all it takes to get the ball rolling.

2. Time-Block It, Baby:
Schedule a 25-minute “get it done” sprint. You’d be amazed what you can knock out when you give yourself a deadline and a dance playlist.

3. Delegate (or Automate):
Hate it? Hand it off. Or find a tool that does it for you. (Betty’s rule: just because you can doesn’t mean you should.)

4. Pick the Pretty One:
Choose the task that feels easiest or most fun first. Sometimes momentum starts with a win, even a small one.

5. Visualize the Finish Line:
Close your eyes and imagine how good it’s gonna feel when it’s DONE. That relief? That’s your motivation.

6. Use the “Body Double” Trick:
Sit with a friend or co-worker (virtually works too) while you both work silently. It’s weirdly magical.

7. Add Glitter (Metaphorically):
Light a candle. Use your favorite pen. Work at a coffee shop. Make the process feelgood.

8. Ask, “What am I really avoiding?”
Sometimes it’s not the task — it’s fear of doing it wrong, fear of being seen, or fear of failing. Shine a light on that, babe.

9. Give Yourself a Bribe:
When I finish [insert task], I get [insert reward]. Hello, dopamine.
