That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where debugging stopped feeling new.
My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 2 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

The detail that surprised me was how much a family dinner changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy
