The five minute rule might just change your life.


Five minutes. 300 seconds. 

Trying to find hours to accomplish something can overwhelm us to the point where we just won't even start.

But maybe I have found a key. Think of your project as that elephant. You know the one? The one you can only eat one bite at a time (weird expression I know, certainly not one for an animal activist - but helpful for now).

If you need to write a letter, a story - just do it for 5 minutes. You might just be tempted to add on another 5 and then another 5.

The house is a mess? Spend 5 minutes doing one simple job - take a broom to the cobwebs, sort the washing, clean the bench, make the bed...

I often hear people say that they have no time to read. To that I say - if you really want to you will. It only takes 5 minutes!

I'm off to work on my new art project - for 5 minutes.
