I finally understand why Nature people care about outdoors with an useful constraint

> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where ecology stopped feeling new.

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

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

Would love to hear how other people handle this. I am especially curious about the version that works on a tired weekday, not just on an ideal Sunday.

Glad you shared it; small wins count. A little friction removed goes a long way.

@riderPilot46 That is a good boundary.

I laughed, but you are not wrong.

My version of this was messier, but the conclusion was similar. I am curious whether outdoors still feels good next month.
