There’s an ol’ productivity hack of running down your list of to-dos, and if you can do something within a few minutes, then do it.
It provides mental space for tackling the bigger projects and reduces the anxiety of a long to-do list. Turns out that we see a lot of our tasks bigger than what they actually are.
However, when it comes to telling others that you’ll do something, it ought to be treated with the same three-minute rule. If you’re not able to show action toward doing what you said in the first few minutes of saying it, then don’t make the promise.
The gap of time between doing what we say is ever-shrinking. People are watching, assessing and altering the amount of trust they give someone based on how quickly you begin doing what you say you’d do.
