Messy room? Homework meltdown? Nobody likes spending hours on a task, and knowing you have something unpleasant facing you can hike up the procrastination quotient. The good news is anyone can do anything in 15-minute increments. The next time your child becomes frustrated, encourage 15-minute focus.
- Set a timer on the microwave or cell phone and spend the next 15 minutes on the task.
- When the timer rings, take a break – play, talk, laugh, sing or have a healthy snack.
- When your child is relaxed enough to face another 15 minutes, set the timer again.
- Repeat until the task is complete!
