The "scary hour" is an idea popularized on the social network Tik Tok. A young woman proposes to devote an hour a day to agonizing tasks.

By creating a small dedicated time slot, the effort seems less since it has a defined duration in time. An alarm can also be programmed, so as not to have to monitor the time. "The scary hour is the only reason my relatives think I'm a worthy adult," joked the young woman, for whom the approach has proved fruitful.
