5-4-3-2-1 anytime there was something I needed to do . . . but I didn’t feel motivated to do it. 5-4-3-2-1 get up when the alarm rings. 5-4-3-2-1 pick up the phone and start networking to find a job. 5-4-3-2-1 open the bills that had been piling up on the counter for months. I started calling this countdown technique the “5 Second Rule.”
