have a large project that I need to break up.
It will be wonderful to be after it but it is so large, I am overwhelmed and angry at myself.

I completely understand that feeling, I get overwhelmed by the thought of opening my pile of mail. Is it something that has a deadline or something you set yourself as a goal? Breaking into baby steps usually helps me, but it sounds like you may be doing that already.

Thanks Frootsy Collins,
it's for school. the deadlines are very far away, being a mom and having a part time job with a lot of commute makes it hard to focus, and sometimes it's a also not so fun and attractive.
What I try to do is "do something every day" i did schedule some vacation so I am working on it.
another complicated part of this is that I like working slow, i like it when things sink in and all the research around it (do i am not in a research track- ma without thesis), even though a lot less of in depth work would also do.
