Starting is often harder than finishing.
In this episode of Brave Moves, Julie breaks down the 2-Minute Rule, a simple but powerful concept popularized by Cal Newport, and explains why this tiny action can unlock momentum, confidence, and self-trust.
The rule is simple:
If something takes less than two minutes, do it now.
And if a task feels overwhelming, commit to just two minutes of starting.
But this episode goes deeper than productivity.
Julie explores why procrastination isn’t about laziness, it’s about emotional friction, and how two minutes can lower resistance enough to rebuild confidence through action.
If you stay until the end, you’ll hear why the 2-Minute Rule isn’t really about getting more done, it’s about keeping promises to yourself, and why that matters more than motivation ever will.
