I like washing dishes.

Every time I start with forks and spoons, then I wash cups, next plates and the big pans and pots last.

Every time I get to do anything I try to get small wins and increase difficulty over time.

Just ask what is the easiest task that can be done, and when you finish, next easiest task will be more difficult because you selecting tasks from a finite list of tasks.

The analogy still holds if ones technique is to star with the cleanest things (keeps the clean water clean) until you throw the nastiest pans into the already dirty water. We should be building systems that make everything the optimal level of difficulty for us.

speaking as a former professional pearl diver, you soak your big stuff (or anything burnt or covered in melted cheese) while you wash the small stuff. then you can almost just rinse the big stuff unless it's really burnt on.
