Stabbing-To-Done

Jeremy Miner’s got a great method for feeling the satisfaction of completing a task. Instead of throwing the used notecards away, he stabs them.

After I complete the tasks on a given card, I gleefully impale the card on the spindle. There’s a profoundly visceral satisfaction that comes with stabbing a completed task through the torso. As a bonus, I have quick, chronological access to any data points that may have been on any of the cards.

A little macabre, but to each his own, right?

(Note to self: Don’t upset Jeremy Miner.)
