Five first steps

  1. Cancel one subscription you don't use
  2. Turn on autopay for one bill
  3. Book the appointment you keep putting off
  4. Renew whatever's about to expire
  5. Clear the mail pile

Chores

Habits

  • Plan tomorrow in 2 minutesEvery day at 5 PM

  • Most important task firstWeekdays at 9 AM

Why it works

  1. 1The most important task gets 9 AM on weekdays, before meetings and email fill the day.
  2. 2Two minutes of planning at 5 PM closes the workday. Tomorrow starts with a known first task.
  3. 3The life-admin list clears bills, renewals and the mail pile in small steps.
