The 2-Minute Rule: Conquer Procrastination Instantly
If a task takes less than two minutes, do it immediately. This applies to sending a quick email, washing a dish, or organizing a small item. Don't defer; execute. This simple habit clears mental clutter and builds momentum for larger tasks.

Procrastination often stems from the perceived effort of starting a task, not its actual difficulty. By committing to just two minutes, you lower the barrier to entry significantly. Most 'two-minute' tasks are often completed entirely once started, or at least break the initial inertia, making bigger projects feel less daunting. It's a powerful psychological hack for building consistency and eliminating a backlog of small, nagging duties.
