   I am working on my app to break tasks down into smaller tasks (you can see it in the video at the end of the article). I think I will release it in the next few weeks :)

   Let me give you a concrete example. I have one ticket per exercise I need to do. A 20 minute workout session equals about 4 to 6 tickets. It is easier to get started when the task is very small. But I also used to procrastinate a lot with p

   I already replied to part of this in another message, which I am reposting here: It makes the task tangible. You will have a much harder time ignoring your tasks if they are physically on your desk. Tearing up the ticket and putting it in a

   Bisphenol-free paper does exist, you just need to make sure you are using the right kind.

   It makes the task tangible. You will have a much harder time ignoring your tasks if they are physically on your desk. Tearing up the ticket and putting it in a transparent jar adds an extra layer of satisfaction.

   I am glad I was able to inspire you. A paper task is even harder to forget than a notification :P

   That is exactly the case! It gives me the feeling that my "digital" work becomes "real".

    That is why I use a ticket printer, to make sure I can start fresh every day without having to spend dozens of minutes creating my post-its by hand.

    Totally agree, the tangible aspect cannot be imitated by anything digital.

    Task chunking, task breakdown. I could not find any app for that, and that is exactly why I created my own software, which I hope to release soon.

    The type of job can definitely vary a lot in terms of the number of tasks and their complexity.

    I did not know about this article, thank you! It definitely goes deep into task breakdown, just like what I am proposing. But I have a hard time starting from an empty list in the morning, because I can totally forget that I need to work if

    Every image is feedback. Scrolling Instagram or Facebook gives you constant feedback.

    Yes, the main problem is the paper with bisphenol, which has been banned in Europe.

    I agree with both of you, but when I am fasting and also doing activities with a high level of dopamine release, I actually find it easier to focus on my tasks as well.

    I will probably release the software as source-closed, but if you need help making a custom script, feel free to email me (you can find the address in the footer of my website). What phone model do you have? I suspect the screen is on the n

    Thank you for your comment. It is so important to be able to resist the temptation of a bad distraction.

    I also think, like petemir, that it is a width issue. What model do you have? Thank you for your comment! It is super helpful.

    Yes, exactly! But as coliveira said, you need a Mac.

    Yes, that is exactly why this method works. Because breaking tasks down into micro-tasks really does work. And the ticket printer helps remove as much friction as possible. That is what makes it a method that requires very little time and e
