Nice ideas to make use of all the apps and bots out there if they help. I've already got a to-do thing on my phone. I like the pomodoro app. Haven't heard of that one before.

Love this:

You don't need always "Work Harder." Sometimes it's better to "Work Smarter"

I wish I'd learned that years ago. It was always work hard, don't stop, keep going... and you'll succeed. Bullshit. You burn out. Smart is the best way :D

In answer to your question...

2 things:

5-minute rule: for things I hate doing. I tell myself a little lie. You only have to do it for 5 minutes then you can stop. You always carry on longer and get more done.

5-second rule: if you have an idea to do something, start doing it before 5 seconds has passed. After 5 seconds, your brain gives you tricks for getting out of doing the chore. It's easier to get more done this way.
