Life Is Too Short, Start Living It.

The 2 Minute Rule Of Productivity

Filed under: Life — Dave Barousse at 4:04 pm on Saturday, March 10, 2007

In addition to The 10 Minute Rule, I give you one more tidbit to help you become more productive and decrease your stress levels.

Much like The 10 Minute Rule, the 2 Minute Rule is very simple to implement into your daily life. The 2 Minute Rule works like this: If you know that a simple task will take you 2 minutes or less to complete, do that task right now. Don’t procrastinate it any longer, just get it done.

How does that reduce your stress levels? The answer is that you know longer have to worry about remembering to complete that task since it is now done and over with. Getting that small bit of information out of your mental to-do list can feel like lifting a huge weight off of your shoulders.

Don’t take my word for it, give it a try. If you notice a difference in your productivity and stress (good or bad) leave me a comment.
