Why it works

  1. 1The project gets 30 minutes at 7 PM on weekdays. A fixed time gives the project a place in a week that has no routine yet.
  2. 2The first steps test the idea early. You text three people who would use it before you make the smallest version.
  3. 3The wind-down at 9:30 PM every day stops project time before bed. Its 10-minute tidy keeps the new place in order.
