Ten minutes a day
You can’t become fluent in a foreign language in ten minutes a day, even if you try for months.
On the other hand, here are dozen things many of us can do (or do better) if we stick with it:
Three-ball juggling
Touch typing
Rubik’s Cube
Drawing
Mental math
Memorizing a deck of cards or people’s names
Meditating
History or geography
Finding joy in small things
Typography
Ukulele
Italic handwriting
Morse code
Excel and HTML
There are two hard parts:
- The seven minutes after minute three
- Doing it again tomorrow
“I can’t do that,” might often be more honestly reported as, “I haven’t chosen to be able to do that.”
