A useful way to think about it is mechanism first: what changes, what stays constant, and what evidence would distinguish the two. The trap is trying to optimize before you have feedback.
- 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.
Hope this helps!

My practical advice is to make the next step tiny enough that you can do it today. Momentum usually answers half the question. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me.

I needed the reminder to start smaller.

This reminds me of something a friend in São Paulo mentioned. The Buenos Aires example makes it feel concrete.
