Task Warm-Up Sequence
A task warm-up sequence runs three escalating prep steps in ten minutes—then a defined handoff to hard work, not endless setup.
A task warm-up sequence is three escalating steps before hard work—review outline, solve one easy problem, read key paragraph—then hand off to the main block within ten minutes. Warm-ups differ from procrastination because they have a defined handoff and timer.
Use before creative, study, or complex admin, not as endless prep.
Common questions
-
When does warm-up become avoidance?
When there is no timer or done handoff—if prep exceeds ten minutes twice, shrink to one step or merge prep into the first chunk of real work.
