The small pc habit that changed my late summer in Mexico City

A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat

The detail that surprised me was how much the train station changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

I started this because my commute felt a little stuck, and indie seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

I am saving this for the next time I overthink late. I keep a note about multiplayer for exactly this reason.

Really good advice, and it feels doable. It sounds small, but the practice run matters. I can already hear the menu music.

Exactly; the hidden cost is energy.

I agree with the goal and disagree with the method. This is more useful on a tired Monday morning than on a perfect day.
