Sixty seconds is enough time to reset a habit, run a quick drill, or hold yourself to a hard limit on something that tends to run long. This page opens already set to 1 minute — press Start and the countdown begins immediately, accurate to the second even if you switch tabs.

• The "one-minute rule" — if a task takes less than a minute, do it now instead of adding it to a list.
• Timing a single round of an interval workout, a plank hold, or a breathing exercise.
• Public speaking practice — a one-minute pitch or answer forces you to get to the point.
• A hard cutoff for a quick break between tasks, so "just a minute" actually stays a minute.
