The 4 minute rule finally got me to floss every day after like 12 years of failing
I kept failing at flossing because I'd tell myself I'd do the full two minutes and then skip it entirely. So I started telling myself I only had to floss for 4 minutes, timer on my phone, and if it was awful I could quit after that. Sounds dumb but I've done it 41 days straight now, and the trick was making the goal small enough that my brain stopped arguing with it. Curious if anyone else has used a time limit like this to get past a habit they kept blowing off.
