My 10-month experiment with gear before coffee

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. laptops got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. laptops got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 8 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

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