Keep the flow going
Success with 10-minute tasks hinges on when you do them. Casey triggers hers by starting the dishwasher after dinner, dedicating the 10 minutes until it finishes to tidying up. When the noise stops, she’s done. Same two songs for background music. Habits revolve around three points: cue, action, reward. On tired days, narrow the scope further—just the right half of the desk, just around the sofa. Keeping it small and consistent is ultimately the fastest way.
— Tips : Use household sounds as triggers (dishwasher, laundry, coffee brewing). Declare your scope before starting (e.g., “just the right half of the desk”).
