The Procrastination Cure (Free Tool)

Start Anything in Three Minutes or Less

I have ADHD and I’ll be honest — starting certain tasks feels impossible sometimes. Like there’s an invisible wall between me and the thing I know I need to do.

Procrastination feels like a disease some days. It gets into your head, makes the simplest thing feel heavy, and convinces you to push it off until “later.”

The truth? You’re not lazy. Your brain is just overloading the cost of starting. It’s running every step of the process in your head before you even begin, and it’s already exhausted.

Here’s how I fight back.

The Three Minute Rule

Give yourself three minutes to take the smallest, dumbest step toward the thing you’ve been avoiding.

Something so small your brain can’t argue with it — open the doc, lay out the workout clothes, set the pan on the stove.

You don’t need motivation to start. You start to get motivation.

Five Quick Starts

1. 30 Second Setup – Do the first physical action so walking away feels harder than doing it.

2. Two Line Start – Promise yourself two lines, two emails, two bullet points.

3. Screw It Timer – Set three minutes on the clock and just begin.

4. External Kick – Text someone “starting now” and check in when done.

5. Anchor Task – Pair what you’re avoiding with something you already do.

Starting will never be effortless for me. ADHD means my brain loves to stall. But three minutes is small enough to get me moving before the excuses pile up.

If procrastination feels like it’s eating your life, try this. Give it three minutes. Stop or keep going — either way, you win.
