I continually am amazed at the power the timer gives me to get motivated to do things.
When I have let my house get out of control and overwhelm sets in, I can promise myself “only 10 minutes” and that gives me the energy to tackle “the pile” which always looks better 10 minutes later.
When it is under control, 10 minutes keeps it that way and allows me not to put it off - what’s 10 minutes?
So what’s better than 10 minutes?
5 minutes!
I’ve started an email program called “Take 5″. Each day you will recieve a 5 minute mission - it can be anything that will give you a big result in only 5 minutes.
It’s free, you can unsub at any time.
