In our daily life, we see we can't do those little things which don't even take a major part of our day, don't ask for effort or any kind of mental preparation.

But we are unable to do them. The reason is Procrastination. 

This 2-minute rule drastically cut down procrastination and makes you capable to move around continuously completing these small chores.

If it takes two minutes to do, get it done right now

Instead of writing a to-do list, or probably forgetting about it or having it come back later which takes more than 2 minutes, do it when you notice it.

These little things start to add up so this rule biases the brain towards taking action and away from procrastination.
