Mental Model: Anything Can Be Done in 2 Hours
I bet you, that you can finish anything you want in just 2 hours. Dot.

The right question is, how many 2-hour blocks will you need to finish it?
It's a kind of "productivity hack": think about everything you need to get done, but break it down into 2-hour blocks. And if you can't think of more than one 2-hour block in advance, that's fine; just plan the first block, and the others will follow.

Why 2 hours, you ask?
It is the maximum time you can be focused and the short enough to be able to find uninterrupted space for it.
