The 10 minute rule




I started working for a company in March providing tele-therapy. One of my favorite interventions for folks who lack motivation is implementing the 10 minute rule. The 10 minute rule is just that. You commit to 10 minutes of whatever it is you lack motivation to complete. Sometimes I commit to 10 minutes and end up completing the task and sometimes that 10 minutes is just 10 minutes of a good effort. I used the 10 minute rule this week to get a jump start on exercising. I was pretty successful and ended up working out every day. I ran. I walked miles. I lifted weights. I ellipticalled. I took 58,567 steps from Monday to Friday. I also bought the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer this week and ate some healthy, tasty meals. My weight at the end of this week was 172.4. I was expecting a 30 pound loss but I'll take this.
