Why is the first small step important in a difficult task?

A large or difficult task can produce avoidance because the whole task feels overwhelming. Defining one small, concrete first action reduces the psychological barrier and creates momentum. After beginning, the student can evaluate progress and take the next step. It does not remove the goal; it makes starting manageable, so A is correct.
