15 minutes!

My dear friend, Adon, living in Santa Cruz, California, inspired me to try this out.
You devote 15 min for a couple of things you want to do or learn every day. In my case it's doing yoga/meditation and practice on my shamisen at the moment.
When I've managed to keep doing those two things every day for a week, I'll expand it with one or two more tasks, maybe playing the flute and study for my USMLE tests. We'll see.
In this way you can focus completely on what you're doing and you'll be able to get many of the things you think about but never do, done!
With a focus like this you won't get bored and loose interest in what you're doing and you'll start long for when you can do it again.
Try it, it's fun and gives quick results! Start with one interest for 15 min a day for a week and then add things to the amount of time you feel you can spend.
Adon had taken it all to a new level and is organizing most of his life in this way. He'll soon start a Blog about it, so look out for the link here!
