The Two-Minute Revolution
Two minutes. That's all it takes to start a revolution in your work, your art, your life. Not two hours. Not two days. Two minutes.
We tell ourselves stories about laziness.
That it's built into our DNA. That some people are born with drive while others aren't. That motivation is something you either have or you don't.
But what if we've got it backwards?
What if the secret isn't about mustering heroic willpower or waiting for inspiration to strike? What if it's about making things radically smaller?
Two minutes. That's all it takes to start a revolution in your work, your art, your life. Not two hours. Not two days. Two minutes.
The resistance we feel isn't about the whole journey - it's about the first step. Our brains are wired to amplify the pain of starting, to make mountains out of molehills.
But two minutes? Anyone can do anything for two minutes.
Want to write a book? Write for two minutes. Want to transform your health? Move for two minutes. Want to learn the guitar? Practice for two minutes.
The magic isn't in the time - it's in the starting. Because once you start, physics takes over. An object in motion tends to stay in motion.
The people who ship, who make change, who do work that matters - they're not better than you. They've just mastered the art of starting small.
Your two minutes starts now.
