You hear a lot of books and videos mention a lot of things about habits these days. I believe that’s worth doing because habits are behaviors that we do consistently on auto-pilot without thinking too much about them, whether we like them or not.

How to directly start new Google Docs or Sheets from the URL bar

Image source: Chrome Web Store

I really like Google Docs and Google Sheets as I can use them freely in my phone, or laptop, that I can also share with others and invite them to collaborate.

As you are still reading this, chances are that you are also a user of these two helpful services. You need to browse through the old files, edit them, or create new ones.

There is a really quick way to create new such files without having to initially go to the landing dashboard where you see all the documents or sheets and then choose to create a new one.

Recently, I learned that there are 2 domains that are very handy, assuming that you are already signed in:

  • doc.new redirects you directly to the page for creating a new Google Doc
  • sheet.new redirects you to a page where you can create a new Google Sheet

Yeah, plain and simple, just like how things we use a lot we wished they were.

I hope this saves you a few seconds of your precious time.
