This Hack Will Make You Stop Procrastinating Right Now
Break the cycle of procrastination with a simple productivity hack to overcome getting started.
Laziness begets laziness.
Why go to the gym tonight? After all, you haven’t gone in a week.
Why take out the garbage when your whole apartment is a mess?
Good points. But it’s time to break the cycle with a simple productivity hack:
Set a 10-minute alarm.
Tell yourself you’ll only work on the dreaded task for a designated time period — and then you can stop.
💡 The hard part is getting started. Just 10 minutes will get you motivated to keep going after the timer goes off.
Once you’re already involved, it’s less tempting to quit.
I do this and love it. Think it is very like the pomodoro effect.
