This is the correct way to do it. Can’t just go in blind!

Walking the dog and doing the dishes are examples that work for her. In general, pick smaller things that you wouldn't struggle to start with. The trick is that once in motion, you have fewer hurdles between you and what you need to do.

I have to create a "reward" for myself for most tasks outside of work. At work I can sometimes just hyper focus through my day, but home chores are sometimes like I'm pushing a boulder uphill. If I know I can do an interest right afterwards, or at least convince myself I possibly can, it makes doing most things a little easier. For example, to do the dishes, I watch YouTube/TV show/movie to make it something I don't 100% despise (only an issue when I spend 20mins zoned into my media and my hands stop doing things lol).

I do a similar thing to help myself get started, and the secret is it doesn't have to be chores. Step one can be literally anything that's easy to do that you're not currently doing. For instance, my step one is often something as simple as talking to somebody. Then step 2 is something closer to what you need to do. Like if I'm gonna need to do something that requires more energy, my step 2 could be taking a walk, or if I can't get myself to do that, pacing around a bit.
You just work up until doing the task you need to do becomes the natural conclusion. If my task was cleaning the bathroom, the next step after walking might be brushing my teeth, then I say "Well I'm already up and doing stuff, and I'm already in the bathroom. Might as well clean it."

And it's not always gonna work, which I think is okay, as long as it works often enough that my space remains livable.
