LPT: If you don’t want to start a task, count down from 6 and just do it. The 6-second rule is surprisingly effective for getting yourself moving when you’re stuck. It’s simple: count down, and by the time you reach zero, you’ll find that you’ve already started the task. Not sure why 6 works, but it’s been a game-changer for tackling those small, dreaded chores.
