Your subconscious just cannot accept that you legitimately intend to tackle a major task when you consistently fail to tackle small ones. If you keep telling yourself "I'm going to do X" and then not doing it, you lose creditability with yourself. Any large undertaking has a certain amount of ritual associated with it, perhaps stemming from this... the launching of ships, breaking ground for a new building, ...
People who up and radical things without warning are kind of scary... case in point, the friend of a friend who got deported then went to Japan then Spain and now the UK. It's almost anti-social to do something without the required amount of ritual.
