Like everyone out there, I have some tasks I really don’t like to do. Namely, washing dishes.
But since we like eating off of real plates intead of paper ones, we take turns washing them.
Recently, I found that if I grab my iPod and put on the headphones, an interesting equation unfolds. It appears that no matter what we’ve had to eat for dinner, it is 2 songs on the iPod for me to wash them.
Yes the songs, vary in length. But it usually works out that two songs weighing in at about 5 minutes a piece is all I need to do a 100% on the dishes. I don’t know about you, but two songs is easier for me to think about than a sink full of chili covered plates. 
The next time you are working to music, pay attention to what tasks are only 2 songs to done and let us hear about them.
