END PROCRASTINATION AND BUILD GOOD HABITS ONE MINI STEP AT A TIME "The single most important technique..." -- Tal Ben-Shahar With the Mini Steps app you can easily overcome procrastination and tackle long-postponed projects, or you can break through resistance and create good habits. It's all done by committing to a short and simple "mini step," which is either a brief period of activity such as 5 minutes, or a trivial action such as 3 exercise repetitions. According to popular Harvard instructor Tal Ben-Shahar, this approach is the single most important technique to emerge from research on procrastination. Esteemed psychologist Albert Ellis said that you can use it to start a wave of positive momentum in your life. The method is also related to the widely-used Mini Habits and Pomodoro techniques. Surprisingly often, doing a mini step dissolves your resistance and leads you to spontaneously continue working on your task -- a result known in the app as "achieving momentum." If completing a mini step doesn't lead directly to momentum, you can choose to do another mini step. Or you can freely quit, knowing that you kept your commitment and have made a good start toward engaging in your project or building your good habit. When using the Mini Steps app, you don't wait endlessly to feel inspired before starting a delayed project or beginning a useful habit. Rather, you "just do it." But the doing is easy, because your initial commitment is so small. THE MINI STEPS APP: * Strongly motivates you to take on those long-deferred projects or to get going with those elusive good habits. * Lets you track any number of tasks. For example, you could create a task for the one-time project of writing a short story, or for the good habit of exercising every day. * Lets you choose a mini step for each task. For example, the mini step for writing a short story could be to work for only 5 minutes, and the mini step for daily exercise could be to do just three sit-ups. * Shows at a glance your progress in completing today's mini steps. Your goal is to close the app's activity ring every day. * Includes an onscreen timer and alarm for your timed mini steps. * Is simple and easy to use. Let Mini Steps be your companion in a more productive, inspired, and creative life!
