That radio bit about the 5 minute rule finally clicked for me

Heard a morning show host say he gives every task 5 minutes before deciding if it deserves his full attention, and it made me rethink my whole to-do list. I tried it on Tuesday with a pile of receipts I'd been avoiding for 3 weeks, and suddenly sorting them felt like a game instead of a chore. Anyone else find that a tiny time limit makes the boring stuff way less scary?

Control over chaos? I can barely control my sock drawer...

It's really just a trick to make your brain think you have control over the chaos.
