Act

For the thing you keep not starting.

Tell me when it shipsComing soon to the App Store

Do the taxes

Find last year's return

One second. That's the commitment.

Steps so small it's easier to start than to skip.

How it goes

  1. Get it out of your head

    Capture from anywhere: the share sheet, a shortcut, your journal.

  2. One absurdly small step

    “Write one ugly sentence” beats “Draft the proposal intro.” Still too big? Make it smaller.

  3. Hold to start

    One second of commitment, from the app, the Lock Screen or the Action button.

  4. Done, then next

    The timer lives on your Lock Screen. Finish there and it counts.
