Reduce friction

Look at what stands between you and an action.

← All short guides

The idea

Friction is the practical work around an action: finding a file, clearing a space or deciding where to begin.

Why it helps

Changing that setup can leave fewer decisions between wanting to do something and doing it. A helpful change is one that solves your actual obstacle.

Try this

  • Name one awkward step.
  • Remove it, combine it with another step or leave a useful item ready.

Keep it simple

One less step is enough to experiment with.
