Actually breaking it down into manageable pieces is how you can approach anything and everything no matter how daunting, so it makes complete sense.
My favourite liberty freedom cheerleader, Judge Anna says something about the effort required for the monumental task she faced "one mouse eating an elephant a mouthful at a time".
Some really great words of support here.
Ya - the breaking it down into super bite size bits comes as an outflow of when I use to tree plant for a living. It was piece rate and I had to break down and calculate the measurements of my movements relative to time with considering best practiced techniques to maximize my output potential within a given day while managing to maintain quality standards of excellence.
Brilliant example and analogy here.
