A beginner mistake I am weirdly glad I made from my rainy evening notes
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where albums stopped feeling new.
My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 5 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.
The detail that surprised me was how much my desk changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.
