How it works

This small tool will help you start and complete tasks that you tend to postpone, avoiding the cycle of pushing them from tomorrow to the day after.

A partial answer to why we procrastinate: at the moment, it’s easier for our brains to focus on something easier, almost as if tomorrow, someone else will handle the task.

So, let’s make achieving this objective easy!

A small example: you need to declutter your room. Instead of listing it as a broad task like 'Clean the room' on your To-Do List—something you might delay until tomorrow or the day after—try specifying the task.

Instead, specify the task: 'Remove any obvious trash,' or even better 'Grab a trash bag and discard anything that is clearly garbage.' This immediate, actionable step can reduce chaos and provide a clearer view of what needs organizing or further cleaning.

The next step could be 'Remove items that don’t belong here.' Take a basket and collect all items that belong in other rooms or areas of your home.

These are the main principles for wording the next step:

• 1. The task should be formulated as an answer to the question, 'What needs to be done?'
• 2. The wording should start with an action verb in its base form.
• 3. Ensure the task is actionable without pondering 'How should I start this?'
• 4. Ensure completing the step yields a specific result.

This tool will offer examples of potential next steps for you to select by clicking on them, tailoring the guidance to your specific needs. As you progress, the tool adapts, providing further suggestions to help you efficiently achieve your goals.

While the tool offers guidance, formulating tasks yourself is often better because you understand your own needs best. Developing the skill to craft effective tasks can significantly ease your life. cleaning.
