Finish one small thing

Most of us have a few things that are almost done: an email draft, a short form, a page half read.

Pick the smallest one

Look at what is open and choose the task that needs the least time to finish. Small is the point.

Decide what "done" means

Write one line: what will be true when it is finished? That keeps the task from growing while you work on it.

Give it a short block of time

Set aside fifteen or twenty minutes and work only on that task until it is done or the time is up.

One habit

Today, choose one small open task, write down what "done" means, and finish it.
