Habits
Momentum First Minute
Momentum first minute guards the opening sixty seconds of a block with an identical start—raising odds the rest of the session continues without renegotiation.
Momentum first minute protects the opening sixty seconds of a habit or work block from negotiation—same song, same seat, same first keystroke daily. Behavioral momentum shows small wins raise odds of the next step; the first minute is the highest-leverage win.
Do not use the minute to reorganize the desk or research tools.

-
