If it takes under two minutes, do it now
Kills the queue of tiny tasks that costs more to track than to do.
Why it works
Small tasks carry a fixed overhead — writing them down, remembering them, re-reading them. Under two minutes that overhead is bigger than the task.
Did it work for you?
One tap, one report per person. Reports are how we find out which fixes don't hold up.
