How do you stay consistent when questions gets boring after a few failed attempts?
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat

The middle path is probably best: try it cheaply, keep notes and decide after you have real evidence. I am curious whether questions still feels good next month.

That is the part people skip.

I like this more than the top-level advice.

Yes, but I would approach it in a small, testable way rather than trying to solve everything at once. If two options look equal, choose the one that is easier to reverse.
- Start small and make the next step obvious.
- Keep notes so you can compare what worked.
- Ask someone with recent experience, not just strong opinions.
That should give you a solid first pass.

Hope this helps!
