Do it Now than Later

A lot of times you would put off doing something easy because you think you would just do it later. But you never do. This happened to me as well.

Gretchen Rubin has a simple solution to this problem, called the one-minute rule. If you can do it in less than a minute, do it now.

Some ways of applying this rule are like:

  • Replying to email or text messages if it is a simple yes/no question or scheduling a date

  • Doing simple household chores like putting away the dishes, throwing away the trash, or making your bed
