Productivity Hack · 10 January 05

I just tricked my brain into completing an onerous task!

I had to write a peer assessment for one of my co-workers, and I wasn’t real excited about what I had to say. Praise is easy; constructive suggestions that are useful without being demotivating are quite hard.

Yesterday, I created a JavaScript that starts a timer and sends up a flag when it’s done. It takes a duration in the querystring, so I made shortcuts on my task bar for 5, 10, and 60 minutes.

I started the 10-minute timer and started the peer assessment, figuring I can suffer through anything for 10 minutes. To my surprise, when the timer dinged, I just had one question left! The set-up worked perfectly.

I wrote up the instructions in JavaScript Timer for Productivity.
