Beat Procrastination- Use The 2 Minute Rule

Entrepreneur James Clear had created a strategy that he uses to stop procrastinating called the 2 minute rule.
There are two parts:

1. "If it takes less than two minutes, then do it now."
Things like sending out a letter, responding to an email, tossing laundry in the dryer, etc. Just do it real quick!

2. "When you start a new habit, it should take less than two minutes to do."
Although this sounds silly, James explains how if you take two minutes and focus on a task, you'll end up continuing that task until it's done. For example, James says if you want to start reading, just open up a book and read one sentence. Next thing you know, you'll be three chapters deep!
