Set a timer for 30 minutes

You can get a lot done in 30 minutes. If you’ve developed skills over the past few years, and you need to deliver something quickly because of a busy schedule, just remember this. You can get a lot done in 30 minutes. 

A short burst of intense focus can deliver more results than we tend to think. This isn’t to say that everything can or should be done in short bursts. Sometimes we hit snags, or things get delayed or motivation dips. But in a pinch, I’d encourage you to set a timer for 30 minutes and see if you can get that thing you’ve been dreading done.
