To estimate a task (in hours or days), I only use numbers from the Fibonacci sequence: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55… The further along the Fibonacci sequence, the bigger the difference with the next number becomes. This aligns well with how we should estimate, because the bigger the task, the more unknowns there are.
