Dopamine Minimum

Pick one visible task when a full to-do list feels too heavy.

Momentum = visibility ÷ effort. Rank your tasks and the single highest-momentum one gets the glowing button. You do one thing. The rest waits. The compounded effect of one small visible win is usually enough to pivot the day.

▸ METHODOLOGY
Momentum = visibility ÷ effort. High visibility + low effort = best momentum. A made bed scores higher than a deep-cleaned kitchen when the effort gap is huge. One task only — don't look at the rest.

How to use

  1. List 3-10 candidate tasks.
  2. Rate visibility (1-10) — how obviously done does it look?
  3. Rate effort (1-10) — how much does it actually take?
  4. The top of the rank is your one task. Do only that one.

Examples

Made bed beats deep clean
Make bed (vis 8, eff 2) = 4.0. Clean kitchen (vis 9, eff 9) = 1.0. Make bed wins today.

Before you trust the result

Check the inputs that matter most: dates, rates, units, costs, and any optional fields you skipped. A calculator can only work with the numbers entered here, so use the result as a decision check rather than a final answer when money, health, tax, legal, or safety consequences are involved.

If the result feels surprising, change one input at a time and watch which number moves. That usually shows the real lever behind the decision.

Frequently asked questions

› What if I can't even pick one?

Pick any. Do it. The goal is to break activation energy, not to optimize.

› Does this mean I never clean the kitchen?

No — it means not today. Tomorrow, reshuffle. Clean kitchen climbs as smaller tasks fall off.
