5 More Minutes

 


The 5 minute rule. It’s a rule that I implement when I feel overwhelmed or when I don’t have motivation. It keeps me going as I repeat this “mantra” and things get accomplished. And what’s more, after a while, at least half of the time, I stop having to repeat it.

This rule can be adjusted for training - change the “5 more minutes” to “5 more kicks” or “2 more push-ups “. While the hardest part is usually getting started, this strategy works to keep you moving. Maybe not forward, but at least it’s not backwards. It’s important to do something, even if it’s just for 5 more minutes.
