Overcoming Procrastination with the 2-Minute Rule

Procrastination often wins because we overthink the task ahead. The 2-minute rule beats it by focusing on just starting. If a task takes under 2 minutes, do it now. If it’s bigger, commit to only 2 minutes of it. That’s often enough to build momentum.

This technique removes the pressure of perfection and replaces it with action. Starting small can lead to finishing big.
