The 1-Minute Rule

One of my favorite bits of happiness advice comes from Ms. Rubin, author of “Happiness at Home” and many other useful guides and articles on happiness and good habits. She proffers a one-minute rule that I have found incredibly useful in my own life. Here it is:

Do any task that can be finished in one minute. 

This simple sage advice helps you decide what to tackle in a messy room. Do the one-minute tasks first. Here’s her list:

  • Hang up a coat.

  • Read a letter and toss it.

  • Fill in a form.

  • Answer an email.

  • Jot down a citation.

  • Pick up phone messages.

  • File a paper.

  • Put a dish in the dishwasher.

  • Put away the magazines.

If you do nothing else, incorporate the one-minute rule into your life. It will give you a short boost of happiness after you accomplish so much in a short time — and as a bonus, you will end up with a cleaner room, which will also make you happy.

1 minute rule! This is absolutely fantastic. In one minute we can finish lots of little work but sometimes we took of them for finishing latter but most of the time we totally forgot.
